The Royal Family has cancelled events and are all going to Balmoral.
The BBC website has changed to black.
BBC on-air presenters have changed into black attire.
BBC One has cancelled regular programming until 6pm.
This sounds like we are in Operation London Bridge.
The road was re-dedicated in front of porta-potties.
The sideline number tribute was in the area where VIPs stand.
The half-time ceremony involved no speeches or recognition.
The owner wore a hoodie to the pre-game meeting with family.

Gotta give a big 'tip of the hat' to Alex Smith and his family for their Halloween ensemble last night.
There's a lot going on here, and I appreciate all of it.

Bigger question probably needs to be why anyone was allowed to stand on it to begin with.

LOOK AWAY IF YOU ARE SQUEAMISH.
Alex Smith ends up with an obvious compound fracture of his ankle/lower leg after a sack, and his year will be over.

Hopefully you reflect on the fact that all the racists and trolls feel emboldened now under your ownership.
What does that say about how those people perceive you? And what have you done to combat that identity?
I'm not joking.
Fire Jack Del Rio tomorrow.
Promote Steve Russ to interim DC.
Move Kerrigan to Linebackers coach.
It's time. It's been time.
We're wasting the primes of talented players with this nonsense.
I am acutely aware of how easy it is to criticize from the cheap-seats, so I just wanted to put forth what I would have done if I had months of planning-time for what was just the 3rd jersey retirement in

Just to clarify;
That play was ruled a catch on the field.
Darius Slay went down injured.
While he was leaving the field, without a review, the ruling was changed to incomplete. (Before 2 min warning, so no automatic booth reviews?).
None of that makes sense. Dodgy.

It's great for the players.

This is a very protectionist opinion that puts self-interest ahead of the sport itself.
I support you on most issues, sir. But you're plain wrong on this one.

The main thing I remember about the writers strike was how overtly it derailed good TV shows.
HEROES season 1 was a *phenomenon*.
And then season 2 was a *disaster* because of the writers strike and the show never recovered.

You, and everyone else who knows me, knows that I'm pretty anti-Trump.
However, if you're not at all political, then... I get it.
Being in the oval office with POTUS is pretty incredible.
People forget how utterly mediocre the Seinfeld ending was.
Admittedly, it was almost impossible to live up to the expectations, and that's a tough plane to land.
But still, an all-time iconic show that flubbed the exit.
On this day 13 years ago, ‘Dexter’ premiered on TV. After early seasons received massive acclaim, its series finale was universally panned, receiving an F grade by the AV Club.
So… what TV show beats ‘Dexter’ for the worst ending ever?
@MikeSington
@RexChapman
it's not immediately discernible in the angle in this video, but that plane is flying above a river that runs through the city. Not weaving in between buildings.
Also it was widely publicized before it occured so people weren't caught off guard.
Welcome to the last ever Washington Commanders game-day where Dan Snyder will be the owner of the team.
I am confident, given current reports from journalists I trust, as well as from talking to people around the team, that the sale is progressing smoothly.

Reading stories online from other new parents whom are spending huge amounts of money just to birth their children in hospital, and then only getting in some cases 1 week of maternity leave?!
Absolutely backwards.

Conservatives love to rail against cancel culture but were the first (and only) ones to call for Colin Kaepernick to be blacklisted.
Pence literally staged a walk-out from the NFL due to a handful of players kneeling.
One rule for thee, not for me.
Fanatics and the NFL shop have pulled the John Riggins Commanders jerseys that were for sale.

They didn't retire it on the 10 year anniversary of his death in 2017.
They aren't retiring it on the anniversary of his death this year.
They're retiring it, with 4 days notice, in the midst of an off-field scandal.
Sean Taylor is the GOAT.
Don't use him as a distraction.
Obviously the first thing that comes to minds is the suspicious, convenient timing of it. And it’s a shame it’ll somewhat take away from the moment. That’s the Dan Snyder playbook, always has been, just smoke and mirrors.
When Ron Rivera was hired in January 2020, this was Washington's starting OL;
LT: Trent Williams
LG: Wes Schweitzer
C: Chase Roullier
RG: Brandon Scherff
RT: Morgan Moses
Every single position on the OL is now worse than it was when Rivera started.

Imagine choosing to side with the people who stormed that Capitol in an effort to subvert the peaceful transfer of power.
Talk about being on the wrong side of history.

THIS is the precise moment the whistle was blown.

got absolutely robbed by that terrible officiating.
As it stands right this moment, your NFC playoff seedings are:
1. Philadelphia
2. Minnesota
3. San Francisco
4. Tampa Bay
5. Dallas
6. New York Giants
7. Washington
ALL FOUR NFC EAST TEAMS.
Watch this. This is important.
Terry McLaurin's clutch catch came on an improvised route!
The play broke down and McLaurin, who was originally on a curl, saw Heinicke scambling and instantly made himself a deep option.
That is football IQ you can't teach.

Here's the video.
I am absolutely gobsmacked that Rivera didn't know that the Commanders could be eliminated today.
How does this happen in the modern NFL?
Did this impact his decision to start Wentz?
I'm so confused right now.
UPDATED:
Rushing yards allowed by the

& their Defensive Line in 2018;

Jordan Wilkins: 61

Christian McCaffrey: 20
Ezekial Elliot: 33
Saquon Barkley: 38
They have not allowed a single run over 20+ yards
It makes me genuinely happy to see Alfred Morris back in Washington gear.
One of the best players I ever covered, and always an absolute pleasure to interview and speak with the dude.
I will forever root for this man.

Stefanski was disgusted at Deshaun Watson here.
The Browns were going to go for it on 4th-and-Goal, but instead take the delay of game and kick the Field Goal.
Watson simply has no command of the Offense right now.
The officials missed a clear false-start by the Left Guard on the 4th and 1 Tush Push.
