The Washington Reagans Playbook.

[Motown_Johnny]

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).

1. Short-yardage run: "Tear Down This Wall!"

Time out: "Ooh, I forgot."

Fumble: Hostage release

This is fun!

2. Commiting an intentional foul: An Ollie North

5. "Intentional foul" is basketball lingo

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

3. Forgetting the snapcount, the playbook, and where the game is being played: A Ronnie
