Random thoughts as college and pro training camps are just around the corner...:
This is a big anniversary year for the burgundy and gold-- the 75th season of the Redskins franchise, the 25th anniversary of the 1982 Super Bowl season and the 20th anniversary of the '87 campaign that yielded the best quarter in team history (thank you, Denver Broncos).
Great inaugural weekend for the AT&T National Tournament. K.J. Choi played smart Sunday while Stuart Appleby imploded on the front nine and Steve Stricker suffered a troubling back nine. Tiger had chances but missed a couple of key putts each round--watch him scorch the field next year when play returns to Congressional. And 137,000+ in attendance puts this tournament on that upper tier of non-majors; congratulations to the Tiger Woods foundation for putting together a first-class tournament in only 117 days. Let's hope this year was the first of many phenomenal July weekends.
The NFL Supplemental Draft saw the Baltimore Ravens take ex-Maryland tackle Jared Gaither in the fifth round; the 6-9, 330 pound behemoth will provide the Ravens with depth in the present and a potential major-sunblocker in the future. I'm surprised the Redskins (with an aging, thin line that wasn't replenished in the draft) didn't take a stab at this guy.
Barbecue/cookout season is in high gear-- hope you all have a chance to enjoy the weather-- and the big hit this year was a seven layer dip. We ran out of chips, so the dip became the primary burger condiment--ridiculously good.
