    Coach wants to avoid complacency The message delivered by Redskins coach Mike Shanahan touched on the success of last year. But he made it clear to the players sitting in the auditorium on the first day of voluntary offseason workouts: There's more to be done. "He didn't want to give us one...

  • Jon Gruden's pick at quarterback this year is Syracuse's Ryan Nassib

    John Keim

    Updated: Mon, Apr 15, 2013

    He's not the most scrutinized quarterback in this draft. That honor belongs to West Virginia's Geno Smith. But Syracuse's Ryan Nassib might be the hottest name. As the NFL Draft draws closer, Nassib is the one more than a few analysts like the most. That includes former NFL coach and "Monday...

    The message delivered by the coach touched on the success of last year. But Redskins coach Mike Shanahan made it clear to the players sitting in the auditorium on the first day of voluntary offseason workouts: There’s more to be done. “He didn’t want to give us one of those talks where,...

  • Lakers' Kobe Bryant already making a list of his doubters

    John Keim

    Updated: Sun, Apr 14, 2013

    First it was weekly updates on Robert Griffin III (which, of course, have not ended and won't until the games begin). Prepare yourself for the same treatment regarding injured Lakers star Kobe Bryant. And prepare yourself, too, for comments like this one Bryant sent out via Twitter on Sunday:...

    He's part Josh Hamilton and part Matt Damon from "Good Will Hunting." Evan Gattis also is a reason the Atlanta Braves have baseball's best record after two weeks. After the Braves' sweep of the Nationals this weekend, the 26-year-old Gattis is batting .324 with four homers and 10 RBI. This is...

  • Pierre Garcon: Redskins' RG3 can be as good as Peyton Manning

    John Keim

    Updated: Thu, Apr 11, 2013

    They spent one season together so far. That's apparently enough time for Redskins receiver Pierre Garcon to compare Robert Griffin III to one of the all-time greats -- and a former teammate. Garcon spent three of his four seasons in Indianapolis catching passes from Peyton Manning. After one...

    John Keim

    Updated: Wed, Apr 10, 2013

    The only thing worse for a Kentucky fan than the Wildcats not winning an NCAA title is having to watch rival Louisville win it. And vice versa. So Kentucky's championship in 2012 was followed by the Cardinals' this season. According to the early oddsmakers -- not to mention college basketball...

  • Kirk Cousins not going anywhere -- unless Redskins get an offer they can't refuse

    John Keim

    Published: Wed, Apr 10, 2013

    Years ago, a high school baseball player told major league teams what it would take to get him to turn pro. The answer left them aghast. And they told him, "You're not worth that much money." Which the kid readily agreed with, but that missed the point. They asked what it would take, and he told...

    John Keim

    Updated: Tue, Apr 9, 2013

  • Redskins remain in mix for CB Antoine Winfield

    John Keim

    Updated: Mon, Apr 8, 2013

    The Redskins remain a strong option for free agent corner Antoine Winfield, a league source said Monday night. Winfield was visiting Seattle on Monday night and a fourth team, another that made the postseason, is trying to persuade him to visit them as well. The source declined to name the...
