Re: REDSKINS BEACH BLITZ June 2 - 4, 2006 in Virginia Beach
I was luck enough to get in on the golf tournament. We only got in about an hour of golf because of rain, but it was still great. Karon Riley was with my group. He has played ball for a variety of clubs and is fighting for some sort of spot on the team. He is a DE. Anyway, the dude is an absolute riot. Great all around guy... talks smack, but keeps it real.
Because of the rain, I had a better chance to meet the others who showed up. Some included Chris Cooley, John Hall, Rock Cartwright, Ladell Betts, Jim Molinaro (BIG DUDE!!!) et al.
First autograph and picture of the day came from Greg Williams himself. I try to stay away from to much football talk during these events, but after thanking him for his autograph I said "We are all pretty excited about this year". Man he just lit up! He started talking about Saunders and the new receiving corp and how he filled holes this offseason. He was jacked up! I really think he believes that he has something very special going into this year.
Also, he specifically went out of his way to say he is NOT leaving Washington until his kids are out of school (at the earliest) so don't believe the media if they start a rumor again after the season.
I'll try to post the pictures as soon as my buddy emails them to me. (He brought the camera)
