Out At The Park

While everyone has been focusing on the 'Lies of Shanahan' and the 'very disrepected' Donovab McNabb, there were a couple of items that flew under the radar out at Redskins Park.

Clinton Portis returned to practice this week.

DeAngelo Hall's jersey goes to the NFL Hall of Fame. #23 was named Defensive Player of the Week coming off his four interceptions in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears.

"I didn't donate it, they stole it", laughed Hall during the presentation.

The size 48 jersey, complete with grass stains, will find its way to Canton this week where it will be enclosed in a glass case along side other NFL HOF-ers.

The Redskins have a bye week this week before facing the Philly Eagles November 15th at FedEx Field. The Skins defeated the Eagles on 10/3, 17-12, in Philadelphia. All eyes will again be on McNabb (and his performance) to see if he can get a repeat against his former team.
