Disco Donny Introduced in Washington

ASHBURN, Va. -- The quarterback holding the burgundy No. 5 Washington Redskins jersey was Donovan McNabb. From everything that was said, it might have been simpler to just go ahead and call him John Elway II. "I've always believed in finishing where you started," McNabb said. "I think there's a lot to be said with that. Not a lot of quarterbacks in this league are able to do that these days. Sometimes change is better. Sometimes you're forced into change. I would have loved to [stay in Philadelphia], but it didn't happen." Instead, he is with the Redskins and new coach Mike Shanahan, and both went to great lengths to say that trading two draft picks for a 33-year-old quarterback with a few nicks is a solid investment. They did so by repeatedly invoking Elway, who was 34 when Shanahan became coach of the Broncos in 1995. "I'm turning 34 this year," McNabb said. "And he finished John's career with two Super Bowls. Hopefully I can continue to follow behind that."

Lauren Szurley might be the only one happy about this trade. I don't know where it is but you gotta watch the press conference video. McNabb seriously walks into it like he's about to get the electric chair. I don't care what he says, He doesn't wanna be there. And it sucks. It really fucking sucks. All that the guy has done his whole career is win. He didn't win the big onw but how many players have? Sorry, not every QB is Tom Brady. His critics want to call him out on his poor big game record but the only reason they're even playing in the big game to begin with is because of him. Oh, you think it was because of Freddie Mitchell? Or Todd Pinkston? Or Desean Jackson? Those 3 guys were pretty important pieces to Donovan's career and they all have something in common. They're all a bunch of fucking clowns. He needs a big, quality receiver and he's not gonna get that in Washington and it's a damn shame cause he's a good, good player who deserves better. Now, let's move on to the real issue here. What's up with the mustache? I feel like guys have been trying to bring it back for years now but it wont stick. It looks too silly. The bow tie is a different story. That's something with tremendous upside as Jay Bilas says.
