Well, dammit, I lost the bet. I was goalie first. Henson toe-kick blasted a shot over my head for the first shot. Lendy Holmes kicked next and got under it a tad (his kick almost went in the upper deck)...then Ken stepped up for his kick. He hit the weakest dribbler ever...but being 6'2"....I had no chance blocking it as it was on the ground inside post.
When it was Ken's turn to be goalie, both Henson and Lendy failed to get shots on goal. Talk about an easy win. Rob did hit a scorcher off the right crossbar as Ken dove the wrong direction. Full video coming shortly, but here's Ken's video as goalie. On my kick (I'm 3rd to go)...I hit a scorcher upper left corner and head into celebration mode as he's left weeping on all fours.
(Lendy is the left-footer). He was not happy he failed to get his two shots anywhere close to on goal. After all, he played soccer in high school and was also the K and P for his footaball team.
We had some great discussions during the game. They were definitely taking in what it was like to play at RFK. The stands were bouncing at times, though nothing like they did the Dallas week. Henson said Haslett has been an absolute ball-buster on him all of camp. It's definitely going to be a challenge writing for the Redskins this year because there's already so many assumptions we make that are just factually incorrect from what is going on in that locker room. More to come on that later...but the 4 of us did do the Fun Bunch TD celebration before leaving the field...fun ass stuff.

God
I wish I lived in DC with you clowns
Don't ever let failure get you down. Remember, a very successful major league hitter failes 70% of the time.
Wat you didn't see at the end of this video
Is me beating my brother with a well placed blast. Oh, and I was barefoot. So I have my bragging tights for years to come.
What you didn't see before the video
Was Joe’s company pumping me full of free beers. My reaction time was low but Joe put a great shot on me.

When are they going to tear that stadium down...
So we can get that 100,000 seat stadium with a retractable roof…this is DC, we deserve better…
Love how Ken guesses left post all 3 times. If there’s ever a Hogs Haven vs. BGN soccer tourney, I’ll be sure to show this game film.
Formerly Bye, Dawk :(
Henson played against Kolb at Houston
Let’s just say he doesn’t think too highly of him.

Haha, just looked it up… Kolb played TCU once during his career at Houston. That was in 2004, when Henson was still sittin’ by the pool all day, chasin’ the muff around in high school. But just in case Henson happened to catch that 2004 TCU/Houston game on a recruiting visit, here were Kolb’s numbers… 25/44 for 256, 3 TD, 0 INT, and he also ran for 53 yards.
Hey Henson, in case you happen to read the recap of your night with Kevin and Ken here at Hogs Haven… I’m looking forward to watching Brent Celek torch your ass this season.
Formerly Bye, Dawk :(
Kolb
I’m not on my pc to look up stuff but I can defied it. Also, when r we doing our trials? I’m gonna blast your Eagles. In short, your poised for another decade of high-octane mediocrity.

Haha, looking forward to it. I have some free time today, so I’ll get to work on my prosecution and I’ll send over my first grenade today. If you’re ready to go with yours, lob one over.
Formerly Bye, Dawk :(
I’m at a bar in Dewey beach now so I wont be coherent or online the next few days.

Maybe you will know this JimmyK....
Are the eagles and Redskins wearing throwbacks the same day? Kelly green and the gold pants for the Skins?
I think you guys have your own board for that?
and I generally appreciate your input here on some issues, and you can defend your QB (god knows somebody better this year) this is a bit much however…..
“Hey Henson, in case you happen to read the recap of your night with Kevin and Ken here at Hogs Haven… I’m looking forward to watching Brent Celek torch your ass this season”……
I just hope you are willing to stop by with your hat in hand and your tail between your legs congratulating us on a fine performance at least twice this year!!!!
I thought it was fine
But having seen Robert Henson last night and his size, I would’ve added a couple of pleases and thank yous if I were you. He’s not small!
I’m an internet tough guy. My politeness level would go up plenty if he were actually standing in front of me. With that in mind… Screw you, Henson.
Formerly Bye, Dawk :(
JIMMY K ?? Who is Jimmy K I could have sworn I heard your name on Dateline? lol thats right screw you HENSON!!

“JimmyK, you’re naked, you’re here to see a 14 year old, you’re chasing a cat around, there’s Cool Whip on the table. What’s going on here?”

lol....not worked up....
other than I got sucked back into Haynesworth talk elsewhere…….I realized I was sounding a bit more “high handed” than was intended at first, that why I added the last bit….supposedly infused with a little humor and good natured competitiveness
don't worry MH
it’s harmless. a couple of the guys from BGN are actually pretty cool. this douche included. haha
SpottieOttieDopaliscious
Note:
That was actually Henson’s redshirt year, if you actually understood anything about how college football works. So while he might not have been suited up, he was still a part of the TCU football program.
Ah, well excuse me for this blatant ignorance. I’m embarrassed to admit I haven’t memorized every minor detail of the college careers of all 1,696 players that will be on an NFL roster this season.
Formerly Bye, Dawk :(
Right there on Wikipedia
I like to check such facts before I try to call someone out on something. Much less chance of looking like a retard, although that ship might have sailed already given your fan affiliation.
Kolb threw for that many yards?? From what I saw he was on his back the whole game and walked out of Amon G Carter stadium with an “L”!! I was a redshirt then and they had a pretty good team but WE were better!! LOL but college doesnt matter its all about what you do in the NFL

TCU was a powerhouse, brother. My man Kevin can’t do it by himself. Fortunately, he now has DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Jason Avant, LeSean McCoy, Leonard Weaver, and the aforementioned Brent Celek at his disposal. You ready to ball?
Formerly Bye, Dawk :(

I'm not surprised Holmes blasted it over
he hit it like a football kick, leaning way back. That puts lift on the ball. That was an unstoppable shot at the end though.
Homer: Aw, twenty dollars! I wanted a peanut!
Homer's Brain: Twenty dollars can buy many peanuts!
Homer: Explain how!
Homer's Brain: Money can be exchanged for goods and services!
Homer: Woo-hoo!
