Bottom Fishing

Later tonight the news will have a fishing story. Some guy at a lake pulled in a human leg today. I can’t imagine what lake this guy was fishing. But I want to watch the news and find out. And I wonder about the rest of the body that goes along with that leg.

Ready to Fish

I’m heading out this weekend for my first fishing day. The weather has not been good for fishing on the weekends, and I can’t get away during the week until later this summer. So I’m going to have to buy my fishing license and maybe a few things for my gear, and I’m ready to find a good spot on Saturday unless we get more bad weather.

A Redskins Legend Passes

A long time Redskins fan will surely recognize the name Sammy Baugh. This man was one of the best in his time, and a world class quarterback who revolutionized the use of the forward pass.

Slingin’ Sammy Baugh, the ultimate three-way threat, died tonight at 94 years old.

Sammy played with the Redskins from 1937 to 1952. He led them to the NFL title his first season and again in 1942. In 1943, he led the NFL in passing, punting and defensive interceptions. Baugh was the last surviving member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s inaugural class.

Sammy Baugh was a great football player and an inspiration to many. He will be missed.

Zorn Getting the Boot?

The redskins really let us down yesterday with an embarrassing 20-13 loss to Cincinnati. Especially since the Bengals are one of the worst teams in the NFL with their previously 1-11-1 record. I mean, WTF?

The buzz around the Redskins base camp was whether owner Dan Snyder will fire Coach Jim Zorn after just one season in charge. After all, Snyder paid Norv Turner, Marty Schottenheimer and Steve Spurrier not to coach the team when they fell into disgrace. Let’s hope the Redskins have a win this next week against Philly. It will be tough, but this team can be tough.

Rough Loss

Have to say that I hate the Baltimore Ravens. That team is one of the few that I really can’t abide. They are a team of overpaid thugs. I don’t think they do a good job representing the fine citizens of Baltimore and the state of Maryland.

But I let all reason go out the window when I bet on the Redskins to beat Baltimore with a 6 point spread. That sorry team really let me down when they lost to Baltimore 10-24 yesterday.

They had a small chance to pull it out in the fourth quarter but they just couldn’t measure up. That blind loyalty cost me $50.
