Pasquarelli is the senior writer at Sportsline, probably the top NFL writer around. However, he is opinionated, and I don't always agree with him. cbs.sportsline.com Tom

The saga of Washington owner Daniel Snyder continues. His team mailed in yet another game, this one a 24-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the final game at Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium. Pittsburgh broadcaster Myron Cope, long known for his unique and irreverent style, persisted in calling Snyder's team the "Wash Redfaces," referring to the notion that the team ought to be embarrassed for its play this season. Snyder sent a team rep to WDVE producer Greg Watson requesting that Cope desist. "That is preposterous," Cope said, on air. "You kidding me, Greg? Is he listening to the broadcast or watching the game? I've been broadcasting for 31 years. (Team president) Dan Rooney and the Steelers executives never once questioned anything I said. I've called Cincinnati 'the Bungles' for years, and (owner) Mike Brown never said a word. "If that boy billionaire (Snyder) thinks he can shut me up, he should stick his head in a can of paint."
