The Post "attacks" the Redskins the same way the Post "attacks" the politicans in the White House and the Congress. That is to say, the Post does not always agree with any of these folks and uses the paper to point out the foibles of all of them.

Is that a good business deicsion? Well the Washington Post is one of the few newspapers in the country that is still running in the black. They must be doing something right.

For everyone who thinks Sally Jenkins is overpaid, let me suggest that they do something positive:

1. Gather up a half-dozen writing samples where you show your creativity and your anayltical skills and your ability to turn a phrase.

2. Send them to the Post and offer to take Sally Jenkins' columnist job for half of whatever she gets paid now.

3. Maybe you get a nice job at a nice raise with total access to the Redskins team and locker room...

4. Maybe you gain an appreciation of how difficult it is to write top shelf sports columns on a regular basis and a greater appreciation of Sally Jenkins' talent - - even though she may not make nice with Danny Boy and Vinnie the Troll.
