The Saturday Morning Post

The Saturday Morning Post

Good morning, Washington. I respectfully disrupt your editor-in-chief’s three-day heat lede, relegating the swelter to bring you the latest in political posturing.

This Season Hurt Me More Than It Hurt the Redskins

This Season Hurt Me More Than It Hurt the Redskins

Rex Grossman overthrowing a wide-open Terence Austin on fourth down closed out a disappointing 2010 season for the Redskins.

Shhh...It's Okay For The Redskins To Lose Now

Shhh...It's Okay For The Redskins To Lose Now

Statistically, he's the worst kicker in the NFL, having made less than 70 percent of his field goals -- so expecting him to fail isn't an unreasonable position.
