SportsNew Redskins Coach Blazing a New TrailNew Redskins Coach Blazing a New TrailThe Associated PressJim Zorn, the new head coach of the Washington Redskins, is known for taking the path less traveled including hoping on his bike and cycling into the wilderness. (July 17)Next time a disgruntled Redskin fan tells head coach Jim Zorn to get lost, he may actually do it.(Pause for Nat of Zorn on a bike)Of course the next time that happens will also be the first time.Zorn is the new head coach of the Washington Redskins after serving as an assistant in Seattle, and he's bringing a love of the outdoors with him.SOT Jim ZornJust find out what people do around here. There's the Potomac river, there's a lot of other rivers around here to float down, there's some mountain bike trails and just hope to be active and hike around and see the area. [Notes:still picture]All of this fresh air has helped come with some out-of-the-box thinking, like making his quarterback practice on a slip'n'slide or play dodgeball.SOT ZornPlayers get bored, if you do the same things over and over again. Also the things that I do that seem like fun, there's purpose to it.Redskins fans are hoping it pays off soon. [Notes:still picture]The team hasn't been to the Super Bowl since winning it in 1991 and he's taking the post from Hall-of-Fame coach Joe Gibbs, but Zorn says he's trying not to feel the pressure.SOT ZornThere's enough expectations for winning a football season, getting a division championship, getting into the play offs getting into a super bowl. The first super bowl for me, Those expectations are enough.And if he succeeds you can expect a lot more people and coaches will be following in his path. ___ ___, The Associated Press.

Im not a redskins(seahawks so i like zorn) fan but do you think with such an out of left field hire this means that Snyder might stick with a head coach for more then a few seasons to zorn a chance to win and go to the super bowl. Maybe if Snyder does this then he wont be looked as such a Jerry Jones wannabe maybe he will actually be like Jerry Jones. An Owner who is extremely hands that can win

Ive been their , it was great i saw rock Ismail juke Darell green when the boyz came back 21 points in the forth quarter and saw teh skins lose in O T. And that place dose clear out at 1/2 time when the skins r down. Boyz have a 4-1 win record over da skins

you dont know what the fuck your talking about. fedex has had more sold out games then any other stadium in the league for years. maybe if you actually went to a game then you would know that. fuck the cowboys

Face it skins suck , and will for years to come. I don't see how they even have a fan base , most kids pick a team when their about 5-6 years old their all teenagers now and have not see crap for a team , I realy think their has been a Mass exodus to the ravens

they won the super bowl in 92' asshat. and i agree, snyder is a dickhole. pretty much all redskins fans agree on that and he's all about money but that's no reason to stop being a fan. We sucked for a long time but we've been to the playoffs twice in the last three years. And your fuckin wrong about fedex cause every game i went to last year was jam packed. so get your facts straight and quit bein a bitch
thomasuras (July 30, 2008 at 2:23 am)
skins haven won nothing in 18 years, they suck and ppl like you is why their not getting better. You ever see a skins home game at 1/2 time the place is empty. Snider has ruined that beyond repair
br731 (July 29, 2008 at 11:25 pm)
