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.

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.

He is going to be ready by Training camp easily. Its just going to be a matter of how much Preseason action the Shanahans will allow him to have.

I would guess he won't play a snap in the preseason and they will limit him somewhat in camp as well. Maybe split the snaps with Cousins. No sense in pushing things.

The comment section of that article is truly ridiculous. Either absolute hate, or unconditional praise. Pretty sure there will always be a devoted hater group for him based on how much media attn he gets.

I agree. Wouldn't totally shock me if he sat for the Philly game out of precaution. Sounds like he'll be ready though.

He's either ready to go week 1 or he'll sit out more than 1 game.
