Any names floated as new owner?  Until then....

Art Briles is not coming to DC.

[Julian, Forum COGNOSCENTI]

Art Briles is not walking thru that door.

[Julian, Forum COGNOSCENTI]

I have met Art Briles and you, sir, are no Art Briles.

[Julian, Forum COGNOSCENTI]

We're thru the looking glass here, people!

all landover coaching staff fired

what a horrible year...if you'd asked people before the preseason what their record would be i wonder how many people would have said 3-13?

quarterback turns out to be a joke . . . fire all the coaches.  why do folks support a company like the nfl that makes billions and pays no taxes, anyway?

This is an idiotic argument people make every so often. Because the NFL is a business league and its profits are passed on to member teams which are, themselves, taxed. There's some minor tax sheltering going on with dues payed to the NFL being tax-deductable and those dues being used for, ostensibly, for-profit purposes, but on the hierarchy of corporate tax wonkery, this isn't in the top 1000.

I mean, next thing you know, people are going to want to tax the money I pay for regatta sponsorships.

No one.

Good riddance. They've already interviewed a few folks for the job. Hopefully they jump on a good candidate in the early going or else we'll end up in another Jim Zorn situation. *shudder*

I would have said 2-14.  But in the NFL one team has to lose and one team has to win.   So in order to have winning teams you have to have your losers as well. No big deal.
