What does Ray Brown Offer on Comcast?

[SmootSmack]

From Oct. 31st's Washington Post

"Former offensive lineman Ray Brown attended practice yesterday and is expected to join the organization as a consultant today."

$10 bucks says he's starting at RG in 3 weeks

I'll listen to anything that the great older skins have to say, be it Warren, Brown, B Mitch, JT, Jake, Bostic. It doesnt matter to me. They can tell you the story from the eyes of a real Skin. Ones that paid the price and won the gold.

Ray Brown is fine. He tells it like it is. He's just not as abrasive as Mitchell or Czab. Plus he played on the team last year and I'm sure he is a bit tenative about how he critiques them. BMitch is still bitter at Snyder and Cerrato and it spills out on TV and his radio show.

BMitch's beef is much more so with Cerrato than with Snyder

I used to love how BMitch would get in a fight after every single play. Still one of my all time favorite Redskins.

This may seem like no big deal, but if you remember we the fans were kept 100% in the dark about this at the time. I don't remember hearing anything about LC being disgruntled until the week they traded him.

Yes.

Since he was looking to take a position with the team. it wasn't likely he was going to say anything negative about the team in post game coments. A company man (if you will) who in actuality will always be grateful to the Redskins for rescuing him from Arizona years ago.

I'd much rather listen to B-Mitch or Czabe ask a tough question than George Michaels toss marshmallow questions as players and coaches. Being critical of a team that spent freely in the offseason then loses home games to Minnesota and Tennessee is definitely warranted.

Mitchell is a bit too high strung for my taste. I didn't like the way he was let go but let's not make him out to be Sammy Baugh. He was a fine kick returner and he played with pride on a lot of LOSING teams (for the most part). Also, he fumbled against the 49ers in the playoffs in '93. May have cost us the game. I wish someone would ask him about that.

That fumble against the Niners was a bad QB/RB exchange, more Rypien's fault for not tucking the ball in than Mitchell's. The QB is usually credited for those type of fumbles since he was the last one to have possession before the ball was lost.

As for BMitch the reporter, I always prefer someone with the courage to speak the truth. For those who prefer Redskins reporting filtered through rose-colored glasses, go see Larry Michaels and Casey Husband at Redskins.com.

I agree that it's good when a reporter isn't afraid to speak the truth, but Mitchell is overly negative. That just seems like his personality.

I like George. He asks tough questions. However I would LOVE to see more of the blonde, Lindsay Czarniak.
