Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread

Through all this Griffin love, it shouldn't go unmentioned that Kirk Cousins was straight ballin' at practice today (so I hear). Having him as a strong #2 (perhaps sometimes #1) is going to be huge for this team

That's great news!

Good to see him moving well. Hoping for good things this season.

They say that he is ahead of schedule now. Of his rehab thing. Good luck to him in 2013!

One thing that concerns me about that picture is the amount of what looks like swelling from the leg to leg. The lower right leg (below the knee cap and before the ankle) looks a lot bulkier than the left leg. I wonder what that might mean - if anything...

Good catch. With all the press today I've been wondering about the question of his knee swelling in the morning. Does this brace go down to his ankle? That could be why one lower leg looks bigger than the other. Let's leave it up to the trainers and doctors...

Also, I'm sure he's lightly going through the motions. Highly doubt he's going full speed. Just wanted to get this in before the inevitable freak-outs.
As reported on Twitter......RG2 has reportedly refused to "Go Full Speed" until Kyle changes the offense......

Just happened to stumble across this. Apparently Baylor has a website specifically for RG3. Has a video about 10 minutes long on his Baylor days playing football. Touches a bit on every year plus his rehab when he messed up his knee the first time. He was somewhat unknown until his senior year with being at Baylor, not exactly a known football school prior to his arrival. So seeing what he did in some of the earlier years was pretty cool to watch. Also some of the things that were said about him by some of his competitors are pretty funny.

P.S. Never paid attention before, but does Tyrann Mathieu look like he had smoked something before the Heisman presentation. Look at the other 4 then look at Mathieu's goofy smile and squinted eyes.

Skinz, just watched the video. Man, he is the same guy he was in college. There are definitely a couple of times he needed to protect himself and didn't even going back to college. That aside his game has transferred completely to the NFL.

He is awesome.

RG2 is reminding me of that annoying little league parent who wants the coach to listen to him more. He needs to zip it.

The media is also overblowing this whole shanahan Griffin fiasco. It's nothing, but the media has to make a story about a high profile athlete.

Shanahan on RG3: “very special,” can be one of the best ever | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/05/24/shanahan-on-rg3-very-special-can-be-one-of-the-best-ever/)

RGIII sent fans wedding gift thank-you notes (Photo) (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/wp/2013/05/25/rgiii-sent-fans-wedding-gift-thank-you-notes-photo/?wprss=rss_dc-sports-bog&tid=pp_widget)

They sent thank you notes for the wedding gifts (at least one). It looks like his fiancee, Rebecca, wrote the note with RG3 signing it on the top flap. Do egotistical 20 year olds do this kind of thing? They are a classy couple, glad they are apart of the Redskins organization.

So what journalist will be the first one to say that these thank you letters are a clear sign that RG3 and Shanny's relationship is in tatters and cant be repaired? It seems thats where everything is steered lately.

This goes for every athlete/star actor/high politician:

how can anyone live under that microscope. Don't get me wrong, the thank you note was indeed classy, but does it need to be worthy of news.

I can't imagine living a life where the smallest details are put into public light for praise and/or scrutiny. Craziness would most surely ensue.

For that, props to Griffin and his fiancee both for seemingly thriving in that light.
