Could Shrine game QB be a fit with the Redskins? - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins
The East-West Shrine Game does not get the attention that the Senior Bowl gets and for good reason. The Senior Bowl gets all of the top prospects while the Shrine has to take the leftovers. And nothing screams second-rate game like the Shrine game’s coaching matchup of Bobby Ross and Brad Childress.

Sweet
We got a bubble now! Not large enough for rex grossmans ego though.
Al_CaPWNED - January 24, 2012
s/o Rich Tandler....
that article only adds more fuel to my RG3 bandwagon. let’s ride!
TheUberest - January 24, 2012
So no more practicing at Bally's Fitness?
iH8dallas - January 24, 2012
Thank god....no more joke practices
StephanHart - January 24, 2012
I can just imagine how that was.
“Huddle up. Santana, you run a skinny post past the treadmills, Fred you fake block and run a wheel route past the free weights, Roy you run out into the flat, by the water cooler and Jabar you get open just past the stretching area. On three!” (Clap)
iH8dallas - January 24, 2012
Haha exactly...useless walk throughs during the week leading up to games....
This practice bubble is a huge step toward not being an embarrassment as a franchise
StephanHart - January 24, 2012
When Gibbs was here
didn’t he make them practice outside in bad weather to get them ready for the game?
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
I don't think he MADE them... had no choice
Skins Fan '77 - January 24, 2012
i thought it was a matter of old school pride
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
Well, that too
Remember, we are the generation that walk to school in the snow, barefooted, and uphill both ways
we didn’t need no practice bubble
Skins Fan '77 - January 24, 2012
The bubble worries me but makes me happy in the same
I just hope we don’t get a dome stadium in the future. Or if we do I hope we get a retractable one and make the other team play in the elements.
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
Haha
They better have some long ass TV timeouts if you’re gonna open the roof everytime we give the ball up.
CJHutch - January 24, 2012
hahaha no i meant for the entire game
if its raining, let it rain inside. If its snowing let it snow. Only have the dome for the superbowl or horrible playoff games. And then we can use it as a mind trick…will the redskins close the roof for sundays NFC championship game or will they force the Lions to play in the elements that they are not accustom to.
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
change their practice schedule
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
Plus
Danny can generate even MORE sponsorship. “Today, the roof is brought to you by Coleman”, and then “Today, the open airs brought to you by Robert’s Oxygen.”
CJHutch - January 24, 2012
I think lots of people would shy away from sponsoring the roof
if the native americans continue to say that the word redskin is a slander…i wouldn’t sponsor the new york N words stadium if I owned a company…thats just bad business
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
I wonder if the coaching staff
is running their schemes (zone blocking, 3-4), or doing more general schemes (man/power and zone, 4-3) to showcase the kids’ talents in a more general setting
atark001 - January 24, 2012
are they still going to use that bubble when they move to DC
or are they going to build a whole new facility with everything in one place?
jbh1190 - January 24, 2012
Nice to see that TRS tax services found something
To spend all of my fees on. I hope Kevin and Ken are able to take a trip with that money.
Seriously though, if the IRS is on your asses, this is the company you want… can I be paid now?
Skins Fan '77 - January 24, 2012
haha...you think we see the ad revenues?
Kevin Ewoldt - January 24, 2012
Here we go
Get ready for a whole new round of ‘Matt Flynn is the answer’
CJHutch - January 24, 2012
Parks needs to have a talk with Kleim.
mkjo - January 24, 2012
haha
we all knew Tony wasn’t going to be around much longer.
TheDeepBall - January 24, 2012
No way we should pay a bundle for Flynn
Donnio1234 - January 24, 2012
But it worked for Arizona.
Kevin Ewoldt - January 24, 2012
He won't cost a bundle
tuckwell - January 24, 2012 via iPhone app
I'm trying to figure out
If that “All NFC-east” team is a joke. I mean, Fletcher is a given (although they still seemed to intimate that Sean Lee is better). But Montgomery is the best center in the division? And Landry is th best SS? He barely played. I’m wondering if this guy knows their agents. But the kicker, the real doozie, is Banks. The best returner. Banks….BANKS!!! WTF?
CJHutch - January 24, 2012
I've said it before and i will say it again. Brian Mitchell is a complete moron and a terrible radio personality.
Can’t wait til my B. Arnold #30 throwback jersey gets here!
