Set it all aside -- Training Camp Begins

[over the mountain]

listening to chris russell driving in to work this morning.

man that guy is bad.

listened to him go on for 15 mins about how he was the only one saying the d jax signing was bad bc he is small and relies on speed and tends to get injured which takes away his speed element.

the clincher for me turning the dial was when he said "i know a lot of redskins fans think he is going to be great a addition but i just dont see it working out that way .... given my track record and perspective, im right everytime"

turned the dial, came back 15 mins later and he was still repeating his opinion of desean ad nauseum, saying he is just giving an honest and realistic opinion that is based on logic and reason ....

to declare his contrarian opinion has been proven correct before desean has even taken a snap is unreal.

Of course if the patriots would have signed him, Russell and the media would be talking about a pats Super Bowl move and how this was the steal of the offseason. But because the skins signed dumbasses 10 years ago this somehow is related to these ignorant opinions.

Just looking at his numbers, how well he fits with the other pieces we have, and the fact that the Skins got him at a bargain price without giving up any players or picks are enough reasons for most people to conclude that the Skins made a good decision to sign him. Even if he doesn't succeed here for some reason, that won't necessarily mean that the decision to sign him was a bad one.

I opposed the DJax signing but not for those lame reasons. DJax was small and relied on speed in Philly but still had 80 catches a year.

Santana Moss has done that for 13 years now.

To me it's a good move because we didn't give up any draft picks, it serves a need and we take away one of the Eagles best players. Had this been a few years ago, the Redskins would've given up picks and given out a bad contract.

There's chance that this blows up in their faces as Jackson will bitch when he doesn't get the ball, or if Griffin struggles. It will be interesting to be how this plays out. I believe there will be some bumps along the way.
