Happy Birthday Walt!

Did you guys see that article in the Washington Post that he was known as 50-50 last year? That must have been odd for him and Rod when attendance was called at team meetings

"Cornerback Walt Harris was known as "50-50" in the trainer's room last year, a good-natured reference to the surgeon's notes that accompanied his medical file when the Washington Redskins signed him as a free agent before the 2004 season. The nickname reflected the long odds that Harris would ever play football again after undergoing major knee surgery -- doctors gave the procedure a 50 percent chance of working -- but it was a prognosis that he refused to believe."
