This thread is dedicated to the writers who just don't "get it". Not necessarily because they are Skins bashers, but because they do it either without knowing the facts, without even a hint of impartiality, or, simply, without class. If you come across someone to add to the list, post here and I'll update the top post. If someone redeems themselves, I'll take them off the list.

Peter King (unless he truly reconsiders Monk for the Hall (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writers/peter_king/06/06/mmqbte/1.html))
Sally Jenkins
Len Pasquarelli
Pete Prisco (http://sportsline.com/nfl/story/9632056)
George Solomon (http://www.thewarpath.net/redskins-locker-room/8157-washington-post.html)

Any specific articles? The search function isn't working for me right now, so I can't pull up old posts.

EDIT: Also, it could be that this is a short list. Maybe it just feels like everyone is out to get us.

I think GTripp should be mentioned in this list. He picked against the Redskins!

lol - I'll have to start a separate thread for "Posters 'Thread of Shame'". I'll probably have to add myself to the list, too.

I'm just messing around with GTripp. I know that there's a difference between being a fan and making reasonable, thought-out predictions; the same applies for sports writers.
I jsut hate the people who can't back up any of their arguements.

SI.com - Writers - Dr. Z's Power Rankings: 21-32 - Wednesday September 13, 2006 11:47AM (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writers/dr_z/09/13/week1.rankings.part3/index.html)
Don't forget about that douchebag, Dr Z (from SI, not Dodge). He's totally underrating the Skins without any reason of why he's ranking them so low. Plus, he's even working on an excuse for their eventual success. Basically, he's a dick.

Sally Jenkins wins this in a landslide. We can stop right here.
