out at redskins camp, so much talk about offensive line man mike williams losing 100 pounds to get ready after two practices in today's heat, he could have lost two more. the unofficial reading, and we just bought this at the hardware store, but it says 106 degrees. the ice tubs and the water stations were the most popular spots on the ground. the only one to seem to not be sweating were, look at that, those were the kickers. because the kickers sit around and when they're not kicking, they do nothing. >> that's what the kickers do. these guys they don't practice. they don't do much. they don't have too much to practice. but when the game is on the line and the people we're count on the most. >> they're opinion doing it for years and that's the way it is. slong they keep putting -- as long as they keep putting that ball up right, inside ten, we good. >> meanwhile, if i ask you the players that have been on the redskins the longest, you might dpet the long as soon as possibler. -- get the long snapper. but how long would it take you to get roth cart wright. he is doing it on eight level.

mike williams hurt his groin a little bit.a little muscle pull stephen higher has a little bruise on his knee, i don't know what the extent of it was. >> randy was a reference to randy thomas. and the coach telling them to cover up the ball in the fetal position, easier says than done for one jason campbell. >> you want to get in the baby fetal position, i said i am 6'5", can't get in that baby position, but it is -- just trying to teach me how to get on the ball, cover it up. tried to make the most of it. >> speaking of campbell, tomorrow, he will be on the cover of the latest edition of sports illustrated. he said he is fine now, but times in the off season when he felt like a piece of tissue. the skins were flushing down the toilet. that is a reference for them trying to trade for jay cutler, and trade in the draft for mark sanchez, this came out in the afternoon. campbell was long gone. tomorrow morning we'll get reaction to this. but you know we'll see if it is in the past, but this article is coming out tomorrow. >> you

cartwright, rogers, mike williams. three of the guys that will not be on the field mitt. but the players who will be playing are treating this like a regular season game. starters could play as much as 2 1/2 to 3 quarters. say what you will about the preseason in general. the redskins might have the toughest prey season schedule in the league. last week it was the super bowl champs. the redskins offense and defense have had their moments. clinton portis looks solid on offense. defensively new addition, albert haynesworth and brian orakpo. both seemed like they can be game changers. all the redskins want to see tonight is progress. >> final dress rehearsal before the big show. this is the last opportunity to get in our corrects and made from -- previous mistakes from the last two games. communication and the past runners. stoppage and everything. this is it. >> intensity will pick up because you know that -- you kn, you will be facing a really good football team first and foremost. then we will be doing, you know, for majority of football games. so with that being said obv

mike williams also missed practice, but i don't think it's serious. >> when you think about the guys, the rookies or the guys that are really fighting for a spot, after they play in the game like they did saturday, having the day off sunday and then coming back on to field today for the first time, when you look at the guys battling for the spot, it's very extreme. colt obviously struggled on friday. chase had an incredible game. we're back on the field. last year, colt brennan was really the man. now he feels like he needs to get it together. he got a good drive going saturday. in his words, he got greedy on third and goal. tried to squeeze in the touchdown and was picked off. not the lasting impression that colt brennan was going for. on the flip side of that, it was chase daniel, the rookie, trying to make a big impression. it ended with 90-plus messages. he threw two tds including this one to marco mitchell. still, daniels says it feels great but there's still a lot of work to do. >> it's a little bit of a relief, but if i start thinking like that, then i'm not going to keep pushi

mike williams questionable with a sprained ankle. philip daniels also did not practice yesterday. he had fluid drained but he is expected to play saturday night. tight end chris cole iin the yellow hat there missed just his second practice in his six- year tenure. he woke up with a bad back but is expected to play on saturday. >> it just has to calm down. >> just a little muscle spasm some my lower back. it's little sore this morning. having a hard time putting my stuff on. >> the nationals mike rizzo will lose the interim tag and become the permanent guy according to several sources. rizzo has been the interim gm since march when jim bode p was fired. he traded for niger morgan, restock the bull been and the nats have a winning record at 17-16 since he brought in jim riggleman to replace manny acta. >> he has shown both aggressiveness and patience with the make-up of the roster and i think the result is we've been playing better baseball because he has solidifiedor roster. >>> let's get to game action now. nats down 5-2. zimmerman goes the other way. all the way to the wall. guzm

mike williams also battling a groin problem. the most serious could be with heyer.nt 11 on 11 practicing short yardage for the first time. he suffered a banged-up knee during the drill. >> it was just a big pile and i hard a little all of the ggh! and i knew something happened. if he is out because we have to rest him, we'll do that. t i don't tnk it is a major issue. we'll see. i can't tell you what the injury is yet. >> in the meantime, antoine randle elgins his eighth season. he knows what he has has to do to stay on top. >> what you got to realize, idea is to come in and be ready for training camp. you can't use training camp to come in and get in shape. you have to come out and be ready. if you don't, as you get older, you have some of the young guys who try to take your spot. you want to be totally prepared. you want to be in shape. two things that will get you kicked out, being out of shape, and not knowing the playbook. back to you being buddy. >> anton i don't pierce is speak out about his actions in helping plaxico burris after his former teammate accident
