On the Field for Practice – 12/25
Posted by on December 25, 2008 – 3:23 pmIf I had to sum up this Christmas day practice in three words or less, I’d go with “warm and efficient”. That’s not necessarily “efficient” in the sense that no motions were wasted or the most was gained from every play, but more that guys were trying to do the work as quickly and effectively as possible to be allowed to wrap up and see their families. (And “warm” in the sense of, why is it 60 degrees on Christmas day?)
Given the same restrictions, Marcus Washington went with “Get it done,” and Pete Kendall suggested “Good for Christmas,” so I suspect that my sense of things was pretty much correct. Which leads to a fairly short update, I’m afraid.
- Shaun Suisham was back at practice today, as was … well, everyone. For the first time in my memory, every single person who was at practice was able to do at least light work. Jon Jansen, London Fletcher, Kedric Golston, Clinton Portis … everyone. Just in time for the meaningless final game at San Francisco.

Thursday, December 25: Happy Holidays
Posted by on December 25, 2008 – 10:24 amIf there was an official Happy Holidays day, today would be as good a choice as any. It’s Christmas Day, tonight is the fifth night of Chanukah, Kwanzaa starts tomorrow, and we’re only four days past the solstice. Here, then, is the Redskins 2008 Season’s Greetings card, wishing everybody a pleasantly non-denominational holiday greeting.
Please enjoy whatever it is you enjoy at this time of year, and enjoy it with friends and/or family, as you’d prefer.
Back later with an update from practice and anything else that seems important from a quiet day at Redskins Park. Read more »
