WitP: LaBoy, Pisa, Bess, Samson, Colt

Travis LaBoy should be able to play against the Falcons on Saturday.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt said he also expects defensive end Travis LaBoy to play. LaBoy missed the past two games because of an ankle injury.
Pisa Tinoisamoa, who finished the season as the Rams' top tackler with 135, spoke out in support of retaining Jim Haslett as head coach.
"I think he understands what is going on," Rams linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa said. "He has been here for a while, so he understands the issues, he understands the personnel. I don't think we're that far off, and he knows that. I think the benefit of having him here is that he knows what to do, he knows how to attack the problems, whereas if somebody else comes in, they're going to have to go through the same growing pains that Linehan went through."
Stephen Tsai had a short interview with Davone Bess yesterday. Here's an excerpt:
How are you feeling?
“It feels great, man. Words can’t describe it. Knowing how hard we worked … it’s just a great feeling. I’m happy for Chad (Pennington, the quarterback). The Jets kicked him to the curb.”
How’s Samson (Satele, the former UH center)?
“He was so excited. He was going around the locker room yelling, ‘Chee-hoo! Chee-hoo!’”
Speaking of Samson, EMQB.com is taking questions for a New Year's Day interview they're doing with him.

Dan Steinberg of the D.C. Sports Bog caught up with Colt Brennan and the rest of the "Cooley Gang" as they discussed offseason plans.
"My offseason goals are to find offseason goals," Brennan said, before following the rest of the Cooley crew out the door. "You can use that," he added, since I kept asking them whether I could use their comments. "You can use the fact that I said you can use that," he added, which was too meta even for me.
And this is where Redskins head coach Jim Zorn stands regarding the QB situation heading into the offseason.
Near the end of today's season-ending press conference, Jim Zorn committed to keeping Jason Campbell as the team's starting quarterback going in to next season.

Zorn also mentioned bringing back Todd Collins and Colt Brennan (who's having knee surgery) back, and working with all three of them during the summer.
Zorn also reiterrated that he doesn't see Brennan unseating Campbell.
