Yesterday, I think everyone got very excited about the owners saying yes to the proposed CBA. Everyone got very excited. But at the end of the day, the players are not in a rush to sign squat. “Why?” you may ask. Well because, they get paid only for game checks, (17 times per year), not [...]

Posted in Capitals, Hoyas, NFL, Redskins, Wizards on January 11, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
For those of you are daily readers of the blog, I apologize for not posting since Saturday morning. I was in Philly visiting some old friends this weekend. While I never wish ill on my friends, witnessing the backlash to the Eagles loss against the Cowboys was quite amusing. It’s interesting that in most NFL [...]
Final NFL Power Rankings – Week 17

The Fairweather Fanny has returned from an unapproved hiatus to provide you with his final power rankings of the NFL season. It looks like he thinks that either Indy or San Diego will be playing the Eagles in the Superbowl. As my only interest in this playoffs will be that Dallas and Philadelphia do not [...]
NFL power rankings – week 15
Posted in NFL on December 16, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Our fairweather fanny returns with his power rankings for week 15 of the NFL season. For those of you concerned by his absence, he unfortunately fell victim to an act of violence perpetrated by a member of his own family (his grandson to be specific) who kneed him where it hurts most. So please stop [...]
NFL Power Rankings – Week #12

Happy Thanksgiving everybody. Our fair-weather fanny has checked in with his holiday power rankings. (To his credit, he got these in to me on Wednesday and I failed to get them up until now. Dallas and the Giants both make the rankings and both performed exactly as one would have thought based on our fair-weather [...]
Week 11 NFL Power Rankings
Posted in NFL on November 19, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Our fairweather fanny checks in with his weekly power rankings. I have to admit that agree with his assesment that there are just not that many great teams in the NFL this year. The NFC East, once one of the strongest divisions, is filled with deeply flawed teams. 1. New Orleans Saints (1): Continuing winning [...]

Gay for Jay checks in with his weekly picks and has an interesting take on the ‘Skins game with Dallas. Enjoy…….. Quick picks from a resident Hater – time is short, but there are some good plays on the board this week. Miami +3.5 over CAROLINA. No Ronnie Brown will hurt, but Miami’s defense should [...]
NFL Week 10 Power Rankings

Our fairweather fanny returns from vacation with his power rankings for week 10 of the NFL season. Interesting to see that he has the Bengals ahead of the Vikings. I’m not sure many NFL “experts” would say the same. The Fairweather Fanny jumped on the Bengals bandwagon pretty early this year. I wonder whether [...]

Gay for Jay is back with his picks. Last week’s absence was my fault not hism, so please do not accuse him of not showing up after his Bears lose. (Oh wait, I already did that). Well they lost last week as well and admirably, he’s back. And let me add this: Gay for [...]

Our fairweather fanny checks in with his week 8 power rankings. Last night’s gem of an evening for D.C. sports fans made me forget about football for a second. Here’s the fairweather fanny reminding us that for now the Redskins are among the elite teams in a NFL “lack of power rankings” (cue the laugh track). Nothing [...]
