It's hard to focus on today's game (relocated to Landover MD) when, just yards from my apartment, Wrigely Field has been converted to an NCAA football field for the Northwestern game this afternoon. I know these stadium swaps are all about money, but I had put the high tourist traffic neighborhood complications to rest once the Cubs wound down their season (although, some would argue that the winding down happened in mid-summer or earlier). Today -- I have to face a sea of purple and a Wrigley as it hasn't been seen for some time. All the same, I hope we accomplish two things today -- shipping Indiana back to their true "home" stadium with a loss, and guaranteeing an express path to a New Year's Day bowl game. Go Redskins! I mean, we are ... Penn State!
HOME IS ANYTHING WITHIN A 650 MILE RADIUS IF IT MEANS MORE MONEY:
