Yes – the site currently looks wacky. I was upgrading the back end of the site and it broke my layout. I will fix this soon…. my apologies. The links up top don’t work either, hopefully everything else does. Stupid computers.

6:00 remaining, 4th quarter…
The visionary Gibbs once again calls revolutionary pitches, off-tackles, and counter traps inside the 10 yard line.
That offensive series was almost as revolutionary and visionary as playing the prevent defense at the end of every game in which we lead.
It’s almost not fair to other teams. Do they even stand a chance against our pitches, traps and off-tackles? Who needs a west-coast offense and zone blitzes when you can strap on the old leather helmets and play ball the way it was meant to be played, with pitches, traps and off-tackles.
As I type this, the Eagles have taken the lead on a screen against our… wait for it… wait for it… against our revolutionary, visionary PREVENT DEFENSE.
Thanks, Joe Gibbs! Keep reinventing the game of football as we know it. Pitches, traps, tackles and prevent defenses! REVOLUTIONARY! VISIONARY!
3:00 minutes left! 4-wide??? It’s not even 3rd and 20 yet! What are you thinking? Wait til they KNOW you have to pass, then pass! Come on, Gibbs, you’re getting rusty!
Oh, look, it’s 4th and 13, and the game hangs in the balance. NOW we should go 4-wide receivers, and… FUMBLE!!
Yes! Gibbs, this is even beyond your genius! Wait to run a true pass offense until the Eagles take the lead and there’s 2 minutes left. HOW WILL THEY EVER DEFEND AGAINST THAT??
I have a guess- they probably didn’t run a FUCKING PREVENT DEFNESE
