Jay Gruden gonna start more beef with this one: "Kirk was just a better player, and he's proven that, and made a lot of money playing quarterback...I think we made the right decision."
It wasn’t the ending we wanted, it’s the ending we got. But, as
@WaltonCaps
said in his heartfelt sign-off, "The Stanley Cup champions banner is still here."

The time has come,

says, for Dan Snyder to face the fans he's betraying: "Come out and say, 'I see this... I've done this, and this, and this, and this incorrectly and I've GOT to be better."
Heading into the 8th inning, the
@Nationals

"I’m not sure his style works in today’s NFL as we think it might"

UPDATED: Umpire discretion calls are not reviewable, so who knows what the umpires were doing with the headsets.
#Nats
have protested the game, which MLB has disallowed.
Naturally, Dave Martinez has been thrown out of the game for going ballistic on the umpires:
Finlay says big changes are likely on the way, maybe even as soon as this weekend if Thursday's game turns ugly.
With that in mind, do you still trust the new ownership group to turn the Commanders around?
They have had to open up so many more sections tonight at

Regardless, Gabe Taylor says he'll definitely be at FedEx Field on Sunday and is looking forward to the experience: "It means a lot. Washington is like a second home. I'm excited. I'm proud. And I can say that my brother's number is retired in the NFL."
