Kearse, Springs and Coleman will all be tied up within a day (I think) and possibly Phil Daniels. They may even give Mo Lewis a look on a short term deal (but I hope not).

Now, I really hate to give this guy the time of day again... but has anyone read the latest instalment of Lenny P's article over at ESPN.com. I mean this thing is just undefendable, in any way shape or form.

"In all likelihood sometime late Tuesday night, before free agency commences Wednesday at 12:01 a.m., Snyder's private jet will embark, on its way to ferry unfettered veterans to the Redskins complex for a quick strike. Snyder, you see, likes to pamper prospects with the private jet, Redskins One, to make them feel extra special. He likes to do something with agents, too -- uh, it rhymes with pamper, and is supposed to be forbidden by the NFL -- to alert them in advance of his interest in their clients.

Make no mistake, when it comes to pushing the envelope on tampering, Snyder is like a safecracker with big, um, fortitude. All the meal tabs he picked up at Indianapolis during the recent combine, when he dined with a cadre of agents at some of that city's excellent downtown eateries, represented more than just altruism and a taste for big steaks"

Yea, if its forbidden by the NFL, then why hasent the NFL found out about it and done somthing?!?! You must have a secret bug down at redskins park that leaks you all this information. In addition, since when do you use the word " um " In the english language, it makes you look retarded, no one has to know that you dont know what the hell your talking about, so dont use um. I mean seriously, go read this article, him and Jenkins must be married or somthing, I cant wait to see the ugly, mindless journalist those two pop out. Maybe Len should stop worrying about the Redskins and find a few mintues to get on a stairmaster.

I read it, but you know what, aside for the tampering shot, everything else is pretty accurate. We do go overboard and make the big splash. Every off season we sign the names and say how this is the team that will bring us a title and it has failed on numerous occasions. Journalist like Lenny P will continue to criticize and deservingly so until we put a winning team on the field.

Just in case someone wants to spend the time and energy to do this, it is perfectly possible to find out just where Redskins One is headed tonight or tomorrow morning. You see, the pilot is required to file a flight plan with the FAA and that is public domain information.

Oh, if the pilot "accidentally" listed the wrong destination, he could face revocation of his license and the plane could be grounded pending an investigation, so that's not likely. Danny Boy needs Redskins One at this time of year.

You can - if you want - know where Danny Boy is going. Then you need to figure out who will be in the same vicinity...

No, I don't care enough to do the work here, but it isn't really such a great mystery. One of these years, one of the writers who purports to be an "NFL insider" will do the work and make the prediction just before "wheels up"...

Does anyone know how to find out the flight numbers for Snyder's jets? It would be cool to be able to track them.

I say LDS has 2 or 3 jets at the ready this year. This is where he excels. I don't miss the draft at all. I tune in just like everyone else! I'm not spending my picks. I just enjoy the way the draft unfolds. The Redskins may or may not end up with more than 2 draft picks. But HOF Coach Gibbs will put out a very agressive team this year with or without a lot of draft picks!

We have a reputation for outbidding ourselves.

Matty:

There are no "flight numbers" because this is a privately owned plane and not a scheduled airline.

Flight plans are filed with the tail number of the aircraft and the make and model of the plane; that is sort of like its permanent license plate. The registrations for planes that list ownership - past and current - are also public domain information if someone wants to go look for it.

So if you find out that the tail number for Redskins One is "ABC-123" then all you have to search for is the filed flight plan for "ABC-123". You don't need the FBI and the CIA working overtime here...

Before you ask, yes, I used to fly small aircraft. I haven't done that for a while now.

Yeah Lenny P. gives Snyder alot of heat but atleast Snyder is trying to get winning team. There are 8 teams in the NFL that are under the cap by atleast $14million and there owners do nothing. I agree that Snyder does go crazy this time of year, but he does give us HOPE every season that this could be the year. As for me I like the feeling that the owner of my favorite team is not affraid to make mistakes, but also that after this week the HOPE for a better season is renewed again.
