Glad CP is optimistic...it's a good sign.

I thought to "dish" on someone was to let them have it.

I was expecting something bad too. :D

I'm glad to hear CP say that Jay-Z, I mean J.Z. "is clearly in charge."
After his first few press conferences this winter I had the feeling that he'd be a little to relaxed in his approach and that the team could easily start feeling like they were at a country club or something (very Ole Ball Coach-esque).
BUT, based on his more recent dealings with the press throughout the OTAs and mini-camps I feel much better about the job that Zorn is capable of doing. Going by the limited exposure we get to him through the videos released by the team he seems to have a good grasp on that fine line between let the players be themselves while still being firmly in control of everything.

Granted, it's only June, but I feel like Zorn could be the real deal. (I really hope this doesn't come back to haunt me, like the time I told anyone who would listen that Patrick Ramsey was Brett Favre v2.0)

Gotta love CP.

i hope a new character is "prince gorgeous from prince georges'.

go skins!

Didn't want to start a new thread, but after reading Wise's article on Portis I think we are going to see a more explosive, dynamic Portis than we've ever seen in DC. He was a little miscast as a power back, but he definitely proved he was as tough as they come. I have a feeling Jay Z and company are going to unleash Portis like never before. While a lot of Denver backs have success, Portis took it to Terrell Davis levels. I see him having a chip on his shoulder this year, if the passing game clicks we could see something special this year. I'm buying a Portis premier jersey before the fall.

i just have that feeling that zorn will do just fine and the players seem to understand where he,s coming from and what he,s asking of them..
time will tell but i like what i,ve seen thus far in the offseason.
could CP have a new character for us..

I Love Prince Gorgeous From Prince Georges!
