Sally Jenkins: Burgundy and Bold

Well, Sally is at it again. Sure, she suggests the possibility that our draft could pan out, but it sounds like she hopes it will fail. She calls our draft board a "pretty colored chart" and refers to our picks as "heedlessly bold" and "backtracking." The funny thing was when she called drafting a punter only acceptable if he is "exceptional," as if Durant Brooks isn't. Like adding the best punter in the country in the 6th round to a team in the same division as Pac Man Jones and Deshean Jackson is a bad decision. Sigh... We could win the Super Bowl and she'd find a way to rag on us.

This dumbass really makes me sick

i'll take rhymes with witch for 100, alex.

This isn't too bad, in my opinion. She's written some absolute crap in the past, but this one doesn't bother me that much.

maybe that's because...... you're evil!

To me everything she writes is crap now!

I've certainly seen worse from her, but oh what a shocker that she has major issues with our draft. I understand a lot of folks have the "prove me wrong" attitdue given our overall performance in the Snyder era, but she's a constant hater.

I'm glad I read the article before posting how much I hate Sally. What's the big deal with this? Seems like the overall point of the article was to argue that we adhered to Polian's principle of drafting talent over need. In many ways I read this as a soft-rebuke, or at least qualifying, of the hysterical Boswell column and recent JLC postings.

Certainly JLC and Boswell were more negative, but Jenkins is always interesting fodder around here, so it was worth the thread IMO. Regardless you can't buy a compliment from her.
