I have no rooting interest in it or anything, but the way this guy puts his neck out for his team and the kind of punishment he dishes out, it's hard to not have a soft spot for him.

For some the image of Mike Sellers is synonymous with that of a madman, one who jaw-jacks to players of opposing teams after crushing them under blocks. To others the image is that of a cagey veteran who can sell a block and then slide out for a touchdown catch in the flat. Still to others, he is a terrorizing runner with the ball, one who can knock them on their rump and keep going.

Sellers was inactive after injuring his back in practice. Sellers, who twisted his back during drills Wednesday, missed his second game since signing with the Redskins in 2004. Sellers is a staple of the running game as a lead blocker for Clinton Portis, is heavily involved in pass protection and is a short-yardage rusher. His absence was felt when the Redskins failed to convert on fourth and one in the third quarter. Sellers did not accompany the team to Tampa Bay and continues to receive treatment for his back.

Alright now that we've put the Sellers talk to rest we can get back to talking about the WCO.
