I could but it'd still be missing the intelligent discussion I get here.

He went on this forum where law students post salaries and had a flame war against the firm using various pseudo-usernames and got the firm to change the salary.

Tucker exaggerates more than Mark Twain and is 3 times the douchebag

lol, probably ... but his stories are hilarious. I don't really care if they are true, as long as they make me laugh. On the douchebag front, no argument from me, the guy is a piece of s*** and I would never be friends with him but again, doesn't keep his stories from being funny

For a second there I thought you were talking about Ross Tucker. lol. Still yeah, I agree, Tucker Max is basically a waste of life with exaggerated stories. I guess if you take them as exaggerated true stories it's great but if you take it word for word it's pretty foolish.

So apparently Beck has been up and down since Saturday.

It seems that Saturday he was struggling with deep throws:
John Beck’s Saturday practice - DC Sports Bog - The Washington Post

Today he seemed to do better:
"Chris Russell
Beck looks his best this am, while back peddling to his left. Just hooked up with @HankTime85 on nice throw & Niles earlier best sideline."

But then this happened...
"Chris Russell
Beck just threw 2 picks to DHall in 7-on-7 work, one long & one short. #Redskins . Also had a wild overthrow of Gaffney."

I'm surprised at you.

He did not have surgery, it was some sort of shockwave threapy and blood plasma/platelet transfusion procedure thing...instead of surgery.

I really hope he doesn't start the year on the PUP list. This would be a huge blow...OJA and LL are going to be a big part of the defense's success or failure.

I hear Hankerson is looking really solid again today. Saturday as a blocker, today as a receiver

Good to hear -- would love to get some production from drafted WRs (on the field, not on the catwalk cough DT cough)

Surgery on his wrist. Shockwave therapy for his achilles

Monkeydad · 08-01-2011, 11:09 AM

Well the achilles is the camp issue, correct?

SmootSmack · 08-01-2011, 11:12 AM

I suppose

Meanwhile, Beck is still struggling with that deep pass

Ugh

Also, it seems that Gano may have heard about the possible Shayne Graham signing...

"Chris Russell
Graham Gano just kicked several FGs, his last from 37, with team surround him. Yelling & blowing horn. #redskins"

I was talking about his wrist surgery.

Mixed reviews on Beck today. Still pretty sharp on the short to intermediate routes. Inconsistent on the deep passes.
