Redskins try funny business

[TheOneManShow 26]

Washington was trying to interest New Orleans in a trade that would have sent quarterback Patrick Ramsey to the Saints and wide receiver Donte Stallworth to the Redskins. The Saints wanted no parts of the deal.

For those of you without an ESPN Insider account, here's the scoop:


(conference call with Dan Snyder and Vinny Cerrato)

<Ring>

New Orleans Front Office:

"Hello?"

Snyder:

"Hi, I'm Dan Snyder from the Washington Redskins and I'm here with Vinny Cerrato, the Redskins vice president of football operations."

Cerrato:

"Hey Guys!"

Snyder:

"Listen, we know you're in the market for a "big time" prospect at the QB position sooooo whaddya say we (garbled)....

N.O. FO:

"Excuse me"

Snyder:

"We were thinking something like (mumbling) Theisman for Donte Stallworth"

N.O. FO:

"Who? Joe Theisman? Oh, we get it. A little post CBA humor. Funny. Seriously fellas, we've got a lot of offers we're shuffling through right now. So if you could get to the point.."

Snyder:

"Ok, ok. How about Patrick Ramsey for Donte Stallworth?"

N.O FO:

"C'mon guys. I said seriously."

Cerrato:

"We are serious"

N.O FO:

"Uhhhhh....Mike Nolan doesn't work here. <click>

Too funny. How the Nolans and Millens of the world keep their jobs is a mystery to me.
