Redskins vs. Ravens prediction and classic D.C. vs. Baltimore video

A Washington Redskins vs. Baltimore Ravens guest prognosticator post is coming, but I thought I’d do a little post just for fun.
WTOP radio is pushing this as a local rivalry, probably because they have a couple of Baltimore fanboys in their sports department. This isn’t a rivalry on two fronts though.

Baltimore isn’t local to [...]

Redskins vs. Colts prediction and Q&A with my friend David

It has been fun over the last two weeks getting guest prognosticators to talk about the Washington Redskins opponent.

Readers of WWN might be surprised to learn that I have a lot of respect for the football culture in the next town up I-95 from here. In fact, I respect the football fans up there so much that I will even call their city Baltimore instead of Balmer like I do when I speak [...]

Have we lost Art Donovan?

My brother notes that the Wikipedia entry for Art Donovan lists November 16, 2006 as the date of his death. I have not been able to verify this from any other sources.
The Bronx born Donovan was a Hall of Fame DT for the Baltimore Colts. In retirement he became an excellent contributor to NFL Films [...]
