Snoop, its already begun this oh, its already begun this season, the quarterback controversy of sorts, not about who is going to start but more about what the starter is some of my competitors plan to reduce the use of antibiotics over the next few years. But what are you having for dinner tonight . Try perdue® simply smart and harvestland®. Two trusted perdue brands of chicken raised with no antibiotics ever. Now wusa9 game on sports with Kristen Berset brought to you by xfinity. Robert griffin, iii is no stranger to controversy, critics and, well, just craziness. It comes with the territory of being an nfl quarterback. After seven wins, multiple injuries and two incomplete seasons you think perhaps he might learn to choose his words a little more wisely. Griffin did it again setting off a firestorm with a recent tv interview where he said he feels he is the best quarterback in the league. Of course, he should know by now it doesnt matter what he says, posts or tweets its going to be used against him. Despite a reported ban on the medias access to rg3, the qb did take time to speak with reporters today after practice about all of this. I know what i meant. I think everyone in this circle knows what i met and its unfortunate my name keeps getting used for headlines for people to click on stories, but i know what i want to be and want to strive to be and im not going to make any apologies for that. I think all players want to strive to be the best and that doesnt change. Desean jackson said hes uncoverrable. Whether thats the way he is or not, thats the way he feels and robert has high goals for himself. Weve also heard the rumor of him over the years losing the locker room. His teammates appear to be standing behind him amidst all this craziness. We asked some of the players this afternoon as well what they thought about this current situation. You know how people are, social media get ahold of things. They just blow everything out of proportion. You dont want to play for a guy who doesnt have confidence in himself. If he got to say it, but the only thing about us we got to help him prove that and show everybody hes that way. If tom brady said it, Peyton Manning said it, its cool, but as soon as rg3 said it, its like a world shot, cnn, everything. Winning helps silence all that.

Jayson werth comes around to score and the nats take the lead. In the 7th rockies had tied the game up. Michael taylor would hit a single to right field. Now in the bottom of the 8th this is nationals lead there. Make sure we got it right. Nationals are up 76. The orioles could do the nats a favor this week. Theyre hosting the new york mets at camden yards. The nats are five games back and some orioles victories could really help savage what theyve lost or at least hold them in the same place. Game one tonight at oriole park, a little weather delay. They got it in, but they couldnt cool off curtis granderson, here in the 5th his second home run in the game gives him a 30 lead. Birds lose this one 50. Birds losing means the nats really need to win tonight. Anybody talking about Matt Williams job in question at this point . Yeah. People are questioning some of his decisions, keeping pitchers in too long, but its not a managers fault somebody is necessarily not hitting or injuries. So you got to take both of them as they go. You know how it goes. It may not be the managers vo you can pass down a subaru forester. dad shes all yours. vo but you get to keep the memories. Love. Its what makes a subaru, a subaru. I bwe invented theca. Lightbulb we built the first skyscraper and the assembly line. We were the first to fly and walk on the moon. And made the first cellphone; and dreamed up the internet. Then why cant we lead on energy . Clean energy when wade le, we put america to work. That means jobs. Lots of them so, top, what you got going on here . We got one, not one, but two yellow weather alerts tomorrow and thursday. Scattered storms, not an all day affair, hit or miss there both morning and afternoon but should set the stage for a nice friday and saturday and yes, some of the storms could affect the preseason game thursday. So the payoff is a little later in the week. Exactly. That is our broadcast for tonight. Good night. Have a good night, everybody go get help, boy. Go get help. Go get help right now if youre a cat, you ignore people. Its what you do. If you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. Its what you do. Go on kitty, kitty.
