Make it 11 in a row, that is, 11 losses, simply pathetic. Some roster Junk: Nationals called up 2005 draft pick Marco Estrada. Estrada replaces Luis Ayala in the bullpen, a role that Estrada has not had since 2006. Estrada has had an impressive year in the minors.

Smoke Signals: The middle aged women crush on Jason Taylor edition
Jason Taylor seems to be settling into the DC digs just fine, although he appears to be most recognizable right now with middle aged and older women. Buy hey, he is getting more recognizable with fellow DE Andre Carter as well. That’s a good thing. Taylor is also enjoying the DC area, but is a little surprised at the attention being received because of his willingness to flip end sides.

Pyromania: Playing wideout isn’t as simple as it seems
Hearing the news of Devin Thomas being cleared to play in his first game as a Washington Redskin this past weekend gave me something to look forward to. Even though pre-season games are utterly meaningless in the long haul, and the athletes on the field during this stretch of time are lucky to be recognized by mid-season, it’s always interesting to see how somebody does when their sole job ...

Smoke Signals: ‘The Babe — not just a slugger or a pig’ edition
First of all, welcome back, Boss Hog. I saw on local TV last night that Offensive Line Coach Joe Bugel has returned to work at Redskins Park. It was a touching interview when he spoke about his ill daughter, who is battling cancer

Redskins Chopping Block: 10 Things We Know Now After NY Jets
10) Brett Favre is still pretty good. Well why not start off the column with a little love for the media Darling. Still under tremendous pressure and less than two weeks of pressure Favre steps in and wings it around like he did late last season.
Skins roster move: Easy come, easy go
 
The Redskins have cut LB Rian Wallace and replaced him with LB David Holloway. Wallace suffered a finger injury in last Saturday’s game that will sideline him for at least the next 3 weeks and that, not performance, is the reason he was released.

Redskins Quick Hitters: Karma is gonna getchya!

Smoke Signals: ‘He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother’ edition
Zorn wasn’t too pleased with the passing offense against the Jets and the first and second team offenses being unable to complete a pass of more than 13 yards indicates the coach knows what he’s talking about.

 Pathetic Nats Fall to 8th Straight Loss
Pathetic Nats Fall to 8th Straight Loss
What else is new. The Washington Nationals lost again last night, a nightly regularity. This team stinks, they just plain stink. In fact, if I was a prospect, I might want to wait until next year to come up, because this is enough to depress anyone.
