1. Nice blind item.

Where did you hear that?

[Bill Wade]

2. As a Redskins fan, I would love to know how you found this out.

3. Gibbs is a devout Evangelical Christian.

That may meet the definition of freeper, I dunno.

4. Well he endorsed Bush i figured anyone in DC heard that

5. All these football people are.

God, and I was such a John Elway fan.

8. Mike Tice campaigned for Bush

in one of his Minnesota campaign stops. It is all about economics (taxes) with them in professional sports.

9. it's also about religion

a huge number of professional football players (and baseball) are fundamentalist christians, more so than the general population by a country mile.

We all know what happens when you combine blind faith with a capricious sport. boom.

6. not as much as his passing game

but it would be hard to suck that much

[northzax]

7. ahh, but it's a faith based passing game

Gibbs and Brunell are fellow evangelicals, and must beleive that God has some soret of plan to eventually give Mark the ability to hit the side of a barn from 20 paces. these are simply the trials of Job, you see.

10. Yeah, it's a shame.
