Re: Redskins Off Season things.

Redskins mailbag, Part 1: Could RG III's daughter help his focus? - Washington Redskins Blog - ESPN

Keim: I think having a baby has, or should have, a positive impact on anyone's career. I know it did on mine. But I've never worried about Griffin's focus; he's a lot more focused than most -- not only in the NFL, but for his age period. Say what you want about him -- and I've certainly pointed out his struggles -- but he is a focused, hard-working, determined player. Ultimately, it gives him a chance to still be successful. If he has a good year, I would not look back and say his baby was somehow the reason. (But you know it will be a storyline should he play well). Maybe his new daughter gives him a different peace of mind or maybe it provides him more perspective; life is different when you go from the center of attention to having a child who now occupies that role. That's true for anyone. But I think he's capable of improving, with or without a newborn. As for social media, that's another bug of mine. When he was at his high point in terms of tweeting it was perhaps three a day. Not sure why the rest of the world can tweet or use social media but he can't. I've never understood it. Maybe people don't like what he says on there -- and I guess it reminds fans of his failures, but it in no way has impacted his performance. During the season? I'd recommend players staying off there because Twitter is not always a kind place for athletes in-season -- I know there are people who spread lies even about what I've written or said and express hatred for having a differing opinion, let alone the classless nonsense that is directed at players. But in the offseason? Have at it; live your life.
