This morning, Congressional Country Club in Bethesda played host to the Earl Woods Memorial Pro Am, the opening event in the AT&T National hosted by Tiger Woods . As you may have heard , Woods himself elected to have an NFL player in his foursome, but since it wasn't one of the Redskins I didn't see too much of that. Instead, I walked the back nine with Jason Campbell , Antwaan Randle El , Capitals...
There were a lot of famous people in a very small stretch of real estate during this morning's opening ceremony at the Tiger Tourney. Of the people you care about, I'll list Tiger Woods, Bruce Boudreau, Jason Campbell, Antwaan Randle El, Rock Cartwright, Shaun Suisham, Leon Harris, Jessica Simpson, and I believe Mrs. Tiger. "I'd like to acknowledge what may be the biggest act of bravery I've seen...
Tony Romo takes enough grief for his off-season golf hobby, but I doubt many people will blame him for keeping this tee time. Romo is playing with Tiger Woods today in the Earl D. Woods Memorial Pro-Am at Congressional Country Club in Washington, D.C. With Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell and receiver Antwaan Randle El in the event, most Washington fans probably aren't happy Tiger chose Romo as...
Redskins head coach Jim Zorn wants one of his highly-touted second-year WRs, Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly , to become a starter outside , moving veteran Antwaan Randle El to the slot position. Thomas and Kelly combined for just 18 catches in disappointing rookie seasons that began with them failing the conditioning test that opened training camp. Thomas might have the inside track this year since...
Last time I used the relationship between Catch% and AirYards per Completion (yards per completion with yards after catch removed) to give an evaluation of WR hands over the last two seasons. Today with 8 years of data (as far back as I can find YAC info for) Catch% and AY/C remain correlated, allowing for 8 years of hands eval and an attempt at an overall WR ranking. Top 20 Catch% over expected Player...

WASHINGTON, June 19 (UPI) -- Days before the United States honors its dads, President Barack Obama prepared to kick off a national conversation about fatherhood, family and mentoring. Obama was to discuss fatherhood and mentoring Friday at the White House, then host an event with young men from local schools on the South Lawn, the White House schedule said. Father's Day is Sunday. Joining Obama are...
Marko Mitchell has the size. He's 6-foot-4 and 218 pounds. He has the speed. He runs 40 yards in about 4.4 seconds. He has the hands. He caught 114 passes for 2,270 yards and 18 touchdowns during his final two seasons at Nevada. "He's got the tools," veteran receiver Antwaan Randle El said. But none of that means the seventh-round draft pick will become the productive, big receiver the Washington...
According to Pat Kirwan at NFL.com, Jason Avant is listed 3rd on his list of 10 receivers poised for a breakout season. He refers to it as a "[Steve] Breaston-like" breakout Unless you talk with an Eagles coach or Donovan McNabb , you might not realize how much this franchise likes Avant. One Eagles executive called him the best slot receiver in the NFL. With all of the attention focused...
[Note by Skin Patrol, 11/07/08 5:13 PM EST ] Promoted from FanPosts. Redskins signed DeAngelo Hall via the Official Site . I was very schocked the Raiders let him go but couldn't believe we landed him (on the cheap). Please let him replace Antwaan Randle El on punt return. I think he's probably an overrated corner, but we're not bringing him in to replace Shawn Springs. Hey everybody, I'm a die-hard...
Hey El! Long time, man! We haven't seen you since we saw you and your former teammates exchange hugs and tears when we got our Super Bowl rings. Well, two pre-season games, but who cares about those? I've been meaning to say something to you for a while now. We miss you, man! I even bought your jersey for my brother's birthday present back in 2002. We sympathize; as fans, we know how difficult it...
Something Old : The Steelers and Skins last faced each other in 2004. Big Ben was a rookie, Clinton Portis was in his first year with the Redskins, and Antwaan Randle El was in a Steelers’ jersey. The Steelers won the game 16-7, but that, of course, was pre-Zorn. Something New : Both teams have two losses this season (and both have lost to the New York Giants). The Skins rank 7th overall on...
“Our receivers are so good, we have a field named after our playing field”? Fuck you, Terry. The Steelers begin their two-week odyssey against NFC East teams with one of their former receivers, first the one who was actually worth a big contract and then Antwaan Randle-El. Pittsburgh was already hurting enough with America’s Most Blunted receiver, [...]
Antwaan Randle El has been criticized for his struggles in the punt-return game this year, and his ineffectiveness forced the Washington Redskins to put Santana Moss back for an attempt last week against the Cleveland Browns.
