Redskins sign DeAngelo Hall. Welp. I was wrong about which imperious NFC East owner would swipe up the erstwhile Raider. Redskins fans, being Redskins fans, have already lost any semblance of perspective about landing another overrated free agent. “First in the NFC EAST now boyzzz,” went out the cry. Because it was the cornerbacks who allowed Jason Campbell to get sacked seven times on Monday night.

What in the name of Jason Taylor were they thinking?

That pic makes me want to play Tecmo Super Bowl and be Atlanta.

There’s nothing wrong with this; it’s a 7 game rental with no other obligations. Springs is a gigantic vagina with injuries year in, year out, I’ll take Hall over Leigh Torrence any day.
Keep in mind there’s little chance he’s going to be anything but a nickelback, smoot and rodgers will start over him.

Dan Snyder just needs a too tight facelift to catch Double J now. On the Doucheometer.

@Jeff: That’s just homertastic rationalization talking. You’ll get to know how bad D’AH is next Sundee. Also, I’ll copy my last comment to the previous post since it probably belongs here anyway.

It always feels good to know that widdle Danny Snyder will always out-dumb the Double J. Maybe it’s the Napoleon complex. Maybe it’s the shirts that look like they were tailor made for a person who’s 6′5″. Or maybe, just maybe he can’t tell the difference between a piece of sweet tang and an apple pie.
Or maybe he was just getting a jump on the Saaurdee news cycle and decided that sexy Fridee was the best time to make his move. Nice.

Yeah this is the exact same as signing deion. Except Hall is 12 years younger and is getting paid a fraction of deion’s salary. The franchise has been set back at least 10 years with this 400K.

Whew!

@Jackin’4Beats:
It’s not homer talk. We’re looking for depth to start at 3RD STRING CB over fucking LEIGH TORRENCE. DHall isn’t going to sniff starting time unless he turns his career around in 1 week. And we’re paying him the same salary as a seventh round draft pick for 7 months. I fail to see the fail here.

See, LA, when I added the Deion pic, that was the exact kind of hyperventilating comment I was hoping to elicit.

Once your start signing Raider cast-offs, the Super Bowl can’t be far behind!

we signed this idiot? i hope all the steelers fans boo him at the cowboys game.

@Mini Dagger….brilliant comment if I say so myself!
November 7th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
@Jeff: So the Falcons and (gasp) even the Raiders figured out how great D’Angelo was to the point that they wanted nothing to do with him? Being a ’skin will now help him channel his future Hall of Fame self I’m sure.
Listen, I’m not trying to be a jerk, but paying a scrub $16M or $400K doesn’t change the fact that he’s a scrub. You’re just getting the “I cleared waivers with no one claiming me” discount.
Bring on SUNDEE!!!

@mini dagger: +1. The skins fans will be too busy trying to beat traffic out of Landover. Right Maj?
November 7th, 2008 at 3:40 pm
Yeah, but he’s our scrub. So fuck off!

Hall’s rate of taking plays off goes from the usual 15 to about 30.

BWAHAHAHAHA.

You know the owners of the NFL resemble members of mine and I am sure other’s fantasy league owners.

I can’t wait for Hall to lobby for Snyder to sign Mike Vick upon his release, which Snyder may consider, thinking he can convert him into a running back or wide-out. Halls retardedness never gets old. He is the epitome of a failure at life and just plain ‘ol “getting it”.
November 7th, 2008 at 5:41 pm
In his eight games in Oakland, Hall was beaten 40 times for 552 yards on 66 passes thrown his way, according to data compiled by STATS. He gave up more yards than any defender this season and was tied for third worst in catches allowed.
good fucking riddance. enjoy it, skins fans.

Talk shit now Doc, but when the league is getting raped by the WildDog offense we’ll see who’s laughing.
November 8th, 2008 at 12:14 am
8 million for 8 games and he fails at life? I can only imagine your titanic accomplishments Doc.
