Every year, there are a multitude of college players that leave school early and apply to the NFL for early eligibility for the upcoming draft. This year there are 53 players – here is the list in alphabetical order:

Russia Pounds Latvia
If you’re a Washington Capitals fan and watched Team Russia’s first game of the 2010 Olympics, the Caps influence was unmistakable. Russia dominated the Latvian team, and earned their first victory of the tournament with a dominant 8-2 win. Alexander Ovechkin and Danis Zaripov led the way with a pair of goals each. Early on, … Read more
CFL Kicker Medlock Signed
The Washington Redskins have signed Justin Medlock to a futures contract, and to compete with Graham Gano at place kicker. Medlock spent the 2009 season in the Canadian Football league with the Toronto Argonauts. He was rock-solid for the Argos, making 40-of-46 field goal attempts, and all of his 22 extra points. He made seven … Read more
Lavar Goes Off!
Lavar Arrington is a passionate dude. Have any doubts? Read on.
I’ve spent too much time trying to defend the guy, and trying to tell other Redskin fans how right he often is, to do so again here. Some like him, some don’t. That’s up to the individual.
But the clip of him going off about Clinton Portis is quite simply the best rant I’ve ever heard on a radio show. Ever.
Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad
Today, both Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom were named to the NHL’s ‘Three Stars of the Week’ for last week. Is it really any wonder?
Grimm Gets ‘Bust’ed
The Hogs finally have a representative in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame. Russ Grimm will be inducted with the 2010 class, and with it, a great wrong will have been righted. It seems impossible that almost twenty years after dominating the NFL, the venerable offensive line known as the Hogs didn’t have a single … Read more
Never Out Of It
The 2009/2010 Washington Capitals are a great hockey team. Sure they sit atop the NHL standings, sure they’re a ridiculous 27 points ahead of their next closest division opponent, but you know what really makes this year’s Caps team special? Their never say die attitude. There doesn’t seem to be any lead that is insurmountable … Read more
An Even Dozen
There will surely be a dozen bad ‘dozen’ references in headlines tonight, but it won’t take away from the magnificent ride that the 2009/2010 Wasgington Capitals are on. Thursday night they made it twelve straight wins with an impressive comeback win over the New York Rangers in their own barn – Madison Square Garden. Nicklas … Read more
Redskins Sign Long Snapper
On Friday, the Redskins reported that the team had signed free agent long snapper Nick Sundberg to a reserve/futures contract.
Okay, maybe not exactly earth shattering news, but it’s January!
Caps Extend To Nine
It was business as usual on Friday night at the Verizon Center – at least for the month of January. The Washington Capitals etched out a 4-1 victory over the Florida Panthers for their ninth consecutive victory, and their franchise record-tying twelfth win of the month. Led by three-point performances from Mike Knuble and Nicklas … Read more
