    Default Which Current or Former Redskin has the Worst Command of the English Language?

    I've slowly become to realize that athletes in town are steadily becoming worse and worse at interviews and I thought I'd put some humor into this fact by injecting a poll to see who you guys thought was the worst at speaking the English language.

    I think I've covered the worst of the worst (former and current Redskins). What do you guys think? Personally, I think Carlos Rogers was the worst. I was amazing to hear him speak. It was like a different language to me.

    every guy you mentioned is Southern so they all have a certain dialect. This topic is a little messy and can potentially turn into a ****storm...Just saying

    Only one of the players on your poll is a Redskin.

    I'm going with Santana, for the simple fact you said "Redskin has" which means current Redskins which eliminates the other 4 from contention

    RIP Blake Fomby... You will be missed... Love you brother. Hope they keep the roof open at Cowboys Stadium so you can still watch them from up there...

    'Los was not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Some of the old-school Hogs were never going to win any Booker prizes: Joe Jacoby and Raleigh McKenzie spring to mind.

    (and how is Fred Smoot one of the poll choices?! he's got a brilliant grasp of the language, even if he doesn't choose to speak in the Queen's English)

    Your OP doesn't show the best command of the English language.

    Portis sure did say some interesting stuff over the years especially about the coaches lol..What's interesting about him though, is the only guy he felt comfortable with during his Redskins tenure was Gibbs and still speaks very highly of him till this day...

    I don't even know why I voted on this poll. Probably because it's 4:40 am but this is pretty borderline here... keep in mind that football players are paid to play football, some are good public speakers and others, not so much. Also, I would vote Joe Jacoby under "other." Not like it really mattered... he was a great player. I've never spoken to him but the gate security lady who works at my uncle's housing development in Boynton Beach went to HS with him in Kentucky. Said he was one of the slowest kids and was always getting in trouble for dumb stuff. She seemed pretty adamant about it haha. I have no reason to believe she'd be making this up... she didn't know much about football but she sure knew Joe.

    I love these surprise threads at 5 in the morning.

    I voted for Carlos, since he hasn't had many interviews, he probably is the worst.

    Honestly first thing I thought of was stumbling' mumbling' Jim zorn and tongue-trippin' vinny cerrato. They were both unbearable to listen to.

    I voted for Smoot. Though I'd love for him to take over for Sam Huff in the booth.

    Love me some Smooooooooot.
