2005 Point & Laugh At The taterskins Thread

The mayor of DC should throw a parade for Chris Simms

Sean Taylor might be suspended for the SEA game because of that stunt. Remember last year there was a question if he spit in a Cincy's players face or not and they couldn't tell for sure on video? I think his little bitch episode yesterday confirms that he likes to spit on peoples faces like a bitchass punk.

Brace yourselves here...but I am going to compliment the Redksins.

Their LBs won that game for them. That is the way a LB corps should play. They had 32 tackles between the 3 of them as well as FF's and INT's. I forgot what a dominant LB corps looks like.

Be nice for the Birds to get 2 OLBs to help Trot out like that, eh?

And back to my regularly scheduled bashing...

taterskins set a playoff record in offensive futility yesterday with 120 yards of offense. That is worse than the '00 Ravens!

America's next huge media mogul ART is at it again, ladies and gents

Well guys, some of you may be interested to know sitting next to us in the press box after the game was one ESPN.com writer named Len Pasquarelli. As I was getting my gear ready, I said, "So, Len, not too bad for an ordinary Joe, huh?"

Len was immediately rather upset .

I will tell this story more in detail soon, but, I thought you'd like to know Len HATES you, me, us as taterskin fans. He sees our questions during his chats on ESPN and his exact words were, "I ignore you f@ckers." Classic.

He was HIGHLY agitated. Die Hard and I kept trying to diffuse him.

The best part, of course, is, I recorded it . You never know when a guy might tell a fib about what happened in the press box .

Here's how the story goes

I'm finishing up the blog when Die Hard leans in and whispers to me, "You see the guy next to me. That's Len Pasquarelli." I looked. NO EFFING WAY. Lenny the Hutt is a gigantic squishy belly. This guy was merely a chubby, frail looking, painfully old looking man. He was small in height. Grey, thinning hair. No real resemblance to his ESPN picture. He no longer qualifies as the Hutt. He's now a Grumpy Old Man .

I can't believe it's him to be honest. I pack my stuff up and go to the rest room where I turn the audio recorder on, putting it into my pocket and walking back to the area. Grabbing my stuff, taking two steps toward Lenny and offering up my opener.

"So, Len, not too bad for an ordinary Joe, huh?"

He looks at my "Washington taterskins team official" badge and quivering a little, fingers it and says, "You work for the taterskins?" said in such a way as to mean, "Suck it." I said, "Not really. Kind of I guess." He said, "What's kind of?" I said I'm just a fan who helps run a fan site and the team lets me come along for the fun.

He said, "You're probably the site that sends all those taterskin fans to my Tuesday chats." I confirmed his suspicion, telling him, "Oh, yeah, you can bet that's us. We hate you man." To which he said, "Well you know what," little shaking hands and eye twitching, mouse like, smug, "I ignore you f@ckers."

Second edit

I laughed. This guy was RILED UP. Then he folds his arms, seems to calm momentarily and asks, "So, tell me. What was the "Ordinary Joe" comment supposed to mean?" I told him, I was just having some fun with him. He said, "Wasn't he ordinary last year?" I said he was substantially below ordinary in my view, but, that wasn't the point of his column. His column was to suggest when Gibbs was done THIS time he would be remembered as an ordinary Joe, NOT just if he struggled early.

That anger came back. "Go back and read it. Go back and read it. I wish you f@ckers would get it right. I never said the game had passed him by." I said, "I never said you did." But, he was on a roll. "I said the counter trey would still work. I said the deep-passing game would still work. I said Dan Snyder would make him fail and he'd be an ordinary Joe. Go back and do a Nessus search. No one inside the beltway can read apparently."

Well, Len, that seems unfair, as we can read, but, perhaps going from a ponderous, squishy lard butt, to a trembling ferret has caused a mental lapse. Next update will include his original story

--Yeah, I'm sure Lenny was quivering in fear because you "work" for the taterskins, Art.

I'm no big Pasquarelli fan, but shouldn't Art be in trouble for doing that while the guy was trying to work? Hiding tape recorders to record the conversation? Chiding him into a discussion like that?

Real good, Art. I hope Lenny complains to the taterskins and ES's press passes are revoked.

I love all of these asshats who are saying "he never spit on him" and "I just checked my HDTV replay and never saw the spit".

Hey jerkoffs...the referee was STANDING RIGHT THERE!!!

Here's The Blog

1:10 p.m., Friday, Jan. 6 -- Guy in line asks, "Are you with the taterskins?" As I'm in gear and technically I am with the team I say "Yep." Dazzle him with my vast knowledge.

1:30 p.m., Friday, Jan. 6 -- Boarding plane. Someone says, "Go Bucs". I shout, "You must be crazy." Girl near him says, "He works for the team." Guy says, "You know him." She says, "No, I heard him talking." I have not the heart to explain I don't REALLY work for the team.

Just back here to inform you that agian you were all wrong!  Once again, your opinions have been shown to be absolutely rediculous and stupid.  I thought you all said we would lose our first game?  Good work guys, you are very intelligent and astute football fans and analysists.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Way to go you little dripping Twat.

I expected better out of the Bucs. Your defense and defense only deserves credit. That slop you call an offense is embarassing.

Sean Taylor might be suspended for the SEA game because of that stunt. Remember last year there was a question if he spit in a Cincy's players face or not and they couldn't tell for sure on video? I think his little bitch episode yesterday confirms that he likes to spit on peoples faces like a bitchass punk.

Brace yourselves here...but I am going to compliment the Redksins.

Their LBs won that game for them. That is the way a LB corps should play. They had 32 tackles between the 3 of them as well as FF's and INT's. I forgot what a dominant LB corps looks like.

Be nice for the Birds to get 2 OLBs to help Trot out like that, eh?

And back to my regularly scheduled bashing...

taterskins set a playoff record in offensive futility yesterday with 120 yards of offense. That is worse than the '00 Ravens!

Taylor won't get suspended but I hope he gets fined out the ass. I was so pissed at Mike Carey because all I saw was Pittman punch Taylor and Taylor gets ejected. If what they said was true and he did spit in Pittman's face, then he deserved to be ejected. But Pittman should have been ejected as well for throwing a punch.

But after finding out Taylor spit in Pittman's face, I was (and still am... and will be for quite some time) pissed at Taylor for almost costing us the game.

I was almost just as pissed at LaVar and Marcus for laughing when LaVar ran 10 yards into the backfield and didn't try to get back and GAVE tampon bay a first down.

But we won. And that's all that matters. It's time to clean our act up for next week.

I don't even read those threads.  Don't waste your time Phreak.   
Ugly offense.  Great defense.  Clean it up for next week.
A wins a win.

I farging hate the taterskins.

Question is, if the league doesn't suspend will Gibbs suspend him?

[Jake]

No. He will be fined, though.

"WE" didn't win anything.  The taterskins won a game.  You sat in front of your tv and watched.  YOU are nothing.  Get a life!

Question is, if the league doesn't suspend will Gibbs suspend him?

williams says he loves taylor like a son, believes Taylor in saying he didn't do it, and would adopt him if he could.  No way does our coaching staff suspend him. Taylor has got enough punishment.  I say the league fines him $30,000+ and the team fines him 10000+ and that would be more than enough
