I am working (of course, what else do I do these days?) and therefore not downstairs watching football as any red-blooded sane person should be doing, so I can’t comment on what’s happening now. But [Todd Haley has apologized](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/11/15/todd-haley-apologizes-for_n_783897.html) for acting like a whiny-ass titty-baby on national TV.

Jesus, what an ass-kicking.

Just hand Vick the 2010 MVP award right now.

This is an epic ass kicking to end all ass kickings. Washington may as well just throw in the towel, pack up their gear, and go home.

The NFL should fine everybody on the Redskins for this performance.

Damn. Rain. Less chance of 500 yards from Vick.

I’m loving this since I need about 75 pts from Vick for my FFball team as my RB’s got SHUT OUT this week.

So hopefully Washington can score a few more to make it OK for Vick to keep throwing.

Wow, did the Skins actually force a punt? They might be able to keep the Eagles from scoring 100.

If I was the coach or the owner, that guy would be unemployed no later than start of business tomorrow. And possibly by halftime.

46 in my league. I think our rules are slightly different than Yahoo’s general rules. For a comparison, the highest so far in any week was Jahvid Best with ~51.

Wow. I thought McNabb would do better. Well, even though there’s more than two minutes left, its time to bring in Rex Grossman. In the “second half down by more than twenty” drill during practice, he’s certainly outperformed Donovan, so here he comes.

Vick’s on pace to break that before the half is over. I have a feeling he might be watching a lot of the second half from the bench, though. personally I’d love to seem him play the whole game just to see what kind of stupid numbers he could end up with in 60 minutes.

Well I guess if they stick the backups in, Jerome Harrison can score 5 TDs.

I don’t like Vick or the Eagles, but that first quarter was something to behold. I was on a treadmill at the gym watching it and people probably thought I was goofy for cheering. Those Maclin and Jackson bombs were just amazing on both ends. That they happened against DeAngelo Hall simply warmed my heart after his Bears game. I’ve always known you can toast Hall and that he gives up a bunch of big plays, glad to see it happening on national TV.

Wonder if the ink if dry on that McNabb contract yet.

The only explanation that makes sense for the Harrison trade is the Brown’s front office having a deep belief in karma. After trading Brady Quinn for Payton Hillis AND draft picks they knew they either needed to trade something of value (Jerome Harrison) for something worthless (Mike Bell) or some manner of unspecified tragedy would befall them in the future. Hey, this makes more sense than any other justification I’ve heard.

48.68 in a standard yahoo league.

I could do without all the Vick dick sucking. You’d think he was Favre.  
Although you could probably fit both…
