The Washington Reagans Playbook.

On NBC Nightly News tonight it was mentioned that some people want to rename the R..skins the Reagans, as a tribute to Ronnie.

This got me to thinking about what plays they might run.

Instead of the "Hail Mary" they might try a "Hail Nancy's Astrologer"

Or a hand off might be called an illegal arms transfer.

A sweep right might be a triple the debt.

A sweep left might be a Brady Bill.

A blitz could be a Grenada Invasion.

You get the idea. Please contribute (these things almost write themselves).

and the Washington NBA team changed its name years ago, because "Bullets" was suggestive of gun violence.
