Garçon means Man in American

Frenchman plucks birds and roasts them good

Pierre Garcon showed what a Frenchman can do in the NFL today as the Washington Redskins beat the Philly Eagles in a magnificent come from behind victory and establish themselves as a contender in the NFC East. This wide out is one tough hombre with great hands and break away speed once he's carrying the ball. Winning against one of the I-95 rivals is always sweeter when victory comes in the last half minute after an ugly and mistake laden game with lots of penalties. A long bus ride home for Chip Kelly and the dirty birds back to City of Brotherly Love giving them time to think about the valiant heart beating in the breast of every Redskin.

It was an “ unacceptable ” finale for the maniacal ferret-faced competitor who created the 40 year dynastic Duke hoops program with 1,000+ wins and fists full of ACC and NCAA championships but for Tar Heels everywhere it was a day of retribution. Michael William Krzyzewski, is a red-blooded All-American college basketball coach of Polish and Ukrainian descent who grew up in Chicago’s famous Ukrainian Village which is (or at least was) culturally very reminiscent of the Rus borderlands. That is to say that young S h-shef-ski grew up as far away (psychology) from Dixie as is possible while still living within the borders of the USA. That makes him the perfect choice to represent Duke University and the Yankee overachievers who emigrate to Durham for 4 years of education and networking before moving back to...
