The new site (name still to be determined, checking availability of certain names) will not depend on The Washington Post or any other mainstream outlet for game recaps. We will have our very own Brud Lee at all home games, and hope to recruit some of you to cover away games.


We all can't say enough good things about TheWarpath.net, but the essential purpose of the new site is to allow you the fan to really speak your mind. More so in essay form, then the current dialogue form. To give as many people as possible their own "projects" for lack of a better word they will call their own.

8588, to answer some of your questions. Op-ed basically means an opinion piece. Usually by guest panelists. For example, we may invite someone from a Jets site to give his view on how Ramsey is doing and what his thoughts were on the Redskins-Jets preseason game. I hope I answered your original content question above. But basically, yes members original thoughts. The status quo is what you see now of this site. The new site will just dig a bit deeper and basically we'll be our own media and newswire.
if it what i think it will be, i like the idea... as one who tends to ramble or wander a bit off topic at times, or simply talk too damn much, it might provide the ideal forum for this kind of expanded screed... without feeling the need to confine it to a short response.

if that is not quite what you had in mind then, as rosanne rosanna-danna said.... nevermind

Haha, hell yeah. That guy ALWAYS plays some kind of school administrator. It's hilarious how there are certain people who only play certain B-parts. There's that guy with the horrible acne scars who plays the gangster all the time.

In that spirit, I was asked to either stop writing the formerly trademarked Warpath Power Poll, or change its content to something a little less abrasive.

My belief is that the tone of the forum I joined fiive years ago, and moderated for three years, had room for a little lighthearted fun. It turns out the guy who signs the checks disagrees, so I'm gone. Fortunately, TAFKAS and the Sheriff agree, and I couldn't ask for a more energetic team to be on.
kind of like what happens in the political world.. the bomb throwers like samuel adams are usefull at first but it becomes difficult to accomodate some folk who live in the purity of the edge once the humdrum of daily life settles in.. neither good nor bad, you need both types but friction often occurs..

Thanks TAFKAS. I tried to play it off as long as I could. Being that Summo and certain others have taken sides, I will be the official designer for the new site. Hopefully soon I'll have a new logo and will be working on new avatars which will be voted on by all the new members.

Re: Announcement: TheWarpath.net Front Office Changes

Please feel free to PM me with any ideas or requests. Since we are in the planning stage, now is the time to get your idea chosen.

I will be taking requests for backgrounds, avatars and we will even have a new section devoted completely to AIM icons, some that will include animation.

You talking about the guy who played one of the brothers in Goonies? Not Joey Pants but the other guy?

Re: Announcement: TheWarpath.net Front Office Changes

Since the Skins have few if any first day picks and will surely trade the one they do have away, I propose we have a draft and split up the members on the day of the NFL draft. We could snake that bad boy and split up the talent evenly.
