Well, it IS Redskins news:

[url=http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/jason-reid/reed-doughty-breaks-bone-in-ha.html]Redskins Insider - Reed Doughty breaks bone in hand, will continue to work out[/url]

He sounds like one tough dude though. Broke the bone and kept on practicing!

MS has let it be known you miss a day you miss alot you might even miss/loose your spot.

HTTR.

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

I like Reed a lot, isn't he almost completely deaf? Yet still continues to hit hard and play pretty damn good.

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

This just reinforces my belief that RD is the coolest guy ever. I hope he starts at SS the whole year

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

Bah, rub some dirt on it and get back in there.

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

I don't know, maybe he just has really bad hearing? I thought I remember watching a show where they said the coaches noticed in the film room he wasn't listening, but rather reading lips.

I thought he was deaf in a ear or something and had bad hearing in the other. Maybe I'm wrong?

Yeah, see I was trying for a sarcastic joke. Someone says Doughy's deaf, I said what? I know I probably should have used the word "huh."

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

I probably still wouldn't have picked up on it haha.

Yeah I got it, just tossed the link up for InsaneBoost and anyone else who might not have known.

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

Yeah I thought he was close to completely deaf, either way it's still crazy how good he is with hearing problems.

Rofl dude, please don't tell me you actually think people need to hear to play football? I'm profound deaf and I played football for two years - my team's total record is 18-1 (two years) and won two national championships (my school won four years in a row but I played only last two).. If you don't believe me, just google up "Maryland School for the Deaf football" and see for yourself..

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

Wow. The Orioles.

You guys averaged 49.55 pts/gm and had a RB run for 1500 yds, 25 TDs that year of the article. (2008)

I'm impressed.


Nice mascot.

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

Thanks man! Yup, I believe you are talking about Ryan Bonheyo.. He's playing LB in Towson U, although he was redshirt recent season..

Edit: By the way, I played during 2005 & 2006..

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

I feel stupid. When I saw this thread I pictured him going through the whole season with a broken hand. Like it was a torn acl or something to that effect.

When I played semi-pro with the DC Stonewalls, we would play Gallaudet University once every year. Many of their players were hearing impaired, our heads were always turning after the plays ended because they couldn't hear the whistle.

Reed is a tough guy, one I've always rooted for to do well.

S Oshiomogho Atogwe — Definitely the best free agent on the market, Atogwe was cut loose by the Rams — even though he is clearly their best defensive player — because they don’t want to meet his sky-high asking price. The price tag has also scared the Lions off, though they want him badly and are watching carefully to see if Atogwe adjusts his bargaining positions. Atogwe would fill a need for the Redskins, who have had huge problems at safety ever since Sean Taylor died. The Redskins are reportedly interested, but, like the Lions, not interested at Atogwe’s current price. Even Dan Snyder has his spending limits and Atogwe has apparently found it. He’s a big-time playmaker, but can the Redskins keep spending huge money on safeties?

Love Reed, but now's a great time to get OJ. Not sure why we're loading up on old RB's..

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

I have to agee. It is an uncapped year and we need a stud FS. Why have we not signed OJ? This is a no brianer. WTF

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

Considering Haslett knows Atogwe pretty well, the fact that we're not interested says a lot. He's not worth the price.

Yes, but next year will most likely come with a cap. A hard cap such as the one employed by the NFL is imperative not only in terms of parity but long term financial stability. I mean heck, the hard cap is the main reason Ted Leonis is able to say the NHL is more financially stable than the NBA with a straight face. I personally doubt the owners will be stupid enough to go back to the old system.

Re: Reed Doughty broke bone in hand
 

Don't worry, it doesn't hurt. Even with a broken hand, RD is ten times better than the grilled cheese sandwich.
