I liked the "Karate Kid" reference... interesting. Oddly enough, it makes sense. I just finished up school this week - nothing left now but GRADUATION and DIPLOMA and BACHELORS DEGREE. So I've been busy wrapping up school. But I think I have time to write now, all I need is motivation and a compelling story... lol. Oh yea, and a job.... lol

Yes, you may make yourself a Brittany fan. I'll read your blog and let you know what I think about it... the Redskins are an interesting team this year, and I haven't been following them very closely. (which is a really bad thing, cuz I know they'll sneak up on me and it's the last thing I want lol)

John,

I just red for post on the story about Imus. Thanks for spreading the good news. While I never want to silence bigots, I think the full light of day should be shown on them and refuted with great evidence. Keep up the good work.

Greetings to you as well Glenn,

I'm really taken aback by this Draft. The first Draft choices for the Skins we're awesome. By many accounts, we may have chosen the top two receivers in the draft along with the best TE. The TE pick is the one I'm baffled with. If we had a great defensive line (by great I mean capable of getting to the opposing QB without sending coaches, players and cheerleaders) it would make more sense. I think we should have taken a DE or at least a DT. Overall, I think it will benefit the Skins. How do you feel you guys did? Also, feel free to post your thoughts on my site (Hail2skins.com).

Sincerly,

John

John,

Greetings.

After the draft is over, as an avid Redskin fan, I would like your thoughts on the Redskins selections.
I am not looking for a grade. I would like your insight.

What is Washington's need?

Did you feel Washington filled areas of need or went after best available player?

As a Giants fan, I think if Campbell can be consistent, I think the Skins have a shot at the division.

Please send me your thoughts to nygmennfl@gmail. com. I will post your thoughts on my Giants blog.

warmly,
glenn
