Lake Lariat Water

BOCC Declares Adult
Contact Advisory Posted
Day Care Week
Photo is public domain found on www.calverthealth.org
By Crista Dockray
Staff Writer
A water contact advisory has been
posted at Lake Lariat located at Chesapeake Ranch Estates in Lusby due to a
bloom of Blue-Green Algae. This algae,
called Microcystis aeruginosa, appears
as a blue-green substance floating on the
surface. These organisms naturally occur in the water and with high heat and
little rain, it causes them to increase in
population. It usually takes place in waters that are slow moving and nutrient
rich.
There is a history of this occurrence
in Lake Lariat, across Maryland, and
throughout the United States. It is not the
result of contamination or pollution and
it is a natural phenomenon.
The water contact advisory is in place
to warn potential swimmers of the negative health effects caused by contact
with a toxin produced by the Microcystis organism in the water. According to
the Calvert County Health Department,
direct contact can result in minor side
effects such as skin and eye irritation or
allergic reactions and blistering of the
lips. With ingestion and inhalation, reactions such as nausea, fever, abdominal
cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, sore throat

or allergy-like symptoms can occur.
These are not supposed to last more than
48 hours. Please watch children and pets
because they can have more severe reactions than adults.
The levels do go up and down throughout the days of the bloom, so the beach
is not closed entirely. If you choose to
swim, please avoid the areas where the
bloom is visible.
If you do become in contact with the
water where the bloom is visible, wash
off with fresh-water. If any illnesses occur, contact the Health Department at
410-535-3922 or 301-855-1557.
The postings will be taken down as
soon as the weather cools and rain falls
causing the population of the organisms to lower naturally. No set date can
be determined. Besides the advisory on
the lake, this occurrence will not affect
any residents living in the Chesapeake
Ranch Estates.

ONR S&T Demonstration

Prepares For Kickoff,
Showcases AUVs
Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City

Division personnel are making final preparations for a two-week U.S. Navy's emerging autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) demonstration to be held at Naval Air Station Patuxent
River, Maryland, Sept. 12-25, 2015.
The event, PAX River 2015, is sponsored by
the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and will
bring together 150 participants, 26 technology
teams and unmanned systems to jointly explore
AUV technologies in common, at-sea environments along Maryland's shoreline.
"Through the display of various emerging
AUV-related technologies, the objective of
the demonstration is to increase effectiveness
in mine-hunting exercises, ordnance surveys,
maritime archeology and infrastructure inspection, such as bridges, shoreline, or sea walls,"
said Robert Gibson, PAX River 2015 project
manager.
Since 1997, ONR has hosted eight AUV Fests
and Science and Technology Demonstrations
(S&T Demos) in Panama City, Florida. This is
the first UAV demonstration hosted by ONR to
be held at PAX River.
According to Gibson, military and commercial sectors are drastically increasing investments in unmanned systems, autonomy,
automation, and systems-of-system solutions.
Those approaches require earlier and more frequent interactions between the user and developer communities and this event will facilitate
interactions by actually focusing on the system
in their intended environments.

"During the two-week demonstration, operators, developers, and stakeholders will have the
opportunity to demonstrate capabilities, collect
data and gain knowledge for operational gains,"
he said. "This event will bring the unmanned
users and developers together in intended environments to learn from each other and further
our AUV capabilities."
An additional benefit expected from this
event is the completion of a Technology Transition Agreement that will allow the government,
academia, and industry that will allow and enable the data collection and sharing with the intent to further develop future naval capabilities.
"AUV systems from ONR's mine countermeasure (MCM) Future Naval Capability Program will demonstrate exit criteria from their
technology transition agreements," said Gibson. "The U.S. and international partners will
conduct joint experimentation to investigate
interoperability, usability, and enhance joint development efforts for the benefit of these emerging capabilities."
Media are invited to attend Media Day from
8:15-11:15 a.m. on Sept. 23, 2015, when participants will present their technologies findings
from the prior two-week demonstration. Attached is the day's agenda.

Speed Pursuit in
Solomons Area
On Sept. 11, at approximately 10:55,
Calvert County Sheriffs Office personnel became involved in a pursuit with
a 2009 burgundy Hyundai Santa Fe in
the Solomons area of Calvert County.
The vehicle had previously fled from St.
Marys County Sheriffs Office personnel. The operator of the fleeing vehicle
was wanted in reference to a serious
domestic assault that occurred in Anne
Arundel County during the early morning hours. The subject was alleged to
have had a gun in his possession. A lookout had been broadcasted to surrounding
counties for the suspects vehicle.
Dfc. Galen Gott was the lead vehicle
in the pursuit and observed the vehicle
failing to stop for intersections controlled by traffic control devices, driving on the shoulder and in the median to
pass other vehicles, travelling at speeds
in excess of 100 miles per hour and
showing total disregard for the safety of
our citizens. Responding deputies coordinated the deployment of stop sticks,
rolling road blocks and any other means
to terminate the pursuit. The operator
of the suspect vehicle rammed four police vehicles during the pursuit while
travelling at a high rate of speed. Once
the vehicles were rammed it was determined that a Precision Immobilization
Technique (PIT) would be performed to
bring the pursuit to an end. Southbound

Route 4 traffic was stopped at Broomes
Island Road to ensure the southbound
lanes were not occupied by any vehicles
during the PIT. A PIT was executed
northbound Rt. 4 between the intersections of Western Shores Boulevard and
Governors Run Road in Port Republic.
The PIT that terminated the pursuit was
performed by Dfc. Buckler. The suspect
vehicle skidded into the median and it
appeared as if the operator attempted
to regain control of the vehicle by counter steering which caused him to cross
the southbound lanes and come to rest
in a wooded area along the southbound
lanes.
The operator, Michael David Hussey,
58 of Odenton, was taken into custody
by Sheriffs Office personnel and was
transported to Calvert Memorial Hospital for injuries he sustained during the
impact with the median and the tree he
struck. Hussey is facing numerous serious local charges in addition to the 1st
and 2nd degree assault charges, reckless
endangerment, disorderly and driving
on a suspended license that Anne Arundel County charged him with during the
early morning hours.

Disorderly Conduct / Harassment /

Trespassing:
On Sept. 10 at 10:42 p.m., Trooper First Class Palumbo responded
to a reported trespassing in the 200
block of Fairground Rd. in Prince
Frederick. The victim reported that
Sherman E. Stepney, 52 of no fixed
address, had followed her when she
was returning to her residence and
attempted to enter her residence.

The victim was able to close the door
and lock him out of her residence.
TFC Palumbo located Stepney, sitting outside the victims apartment.
Stepney was extremely intoxicated
and disorderly. He was arrested and
incarcerated at the Calvert County
Detention Center.
Our Employees
Many criticize the county government

often because the individual has an axe
to grind over a particular policy or issue.
Often, it is our county employees who
take the brunt of the criticism, but typically, the county employee is simply doing what and how they are instructed to
implement the laws and ordinances of the
national, state and local authorities.
Especially during tough economic conditions, it can be a real challenge to find
ways to thank the hard work done by our
county employees. Budget constraints often preclude the type of financial recognition through Pay Raises, Cost of Living
Allowances, Step Increases, and Awards.
We still do have a monthly and yearly
Employee of the Month recognition program and various award recognition ceremonies as one means to say thank you.
Other opportunities present themselves
as means to say thanks. A yearly employee luncheon and a yearly dinner are such
an event where we are able to get together
and communicate outside of work. At the
yearly employee luncheon, each employee receives a ticket for a drawing. When
the numbers are pulled, the winning ticket holder earns a day off with that work
day substituted by either the County Administrator or one of the Commissioners
as selected by the winning ticket holder.
This year, Commissioner Pat Nutter,
was selected to work at the Calvert Marine Museum, Commissioner Mike Hart,
selected to work at the Chesapeake Hills
Golf Course, and Commissioners Tom
Hejl and Steve Weems, were selected to
work at Water and Sewer. County Administrator, Terry Shannon was selected
to work at the Office on Aging. I was selected to work at Highway Maintenance.

gree with some of the

finest county employees we have. Assigned
to a crew (usually
4 6 members) who
addresses drainage issues, we first attempted to remove a collapsed drain pipe,
but had to relocate when it was discovered
proper markings had not been made. Even
the county must comply with the Miss
Utility requirements.
Instead, we moved to an area on Coster
Road in Lusby where a Bobcat and dump
trucks were used to scrape and haul away
a layer of grass and dirt that had been
causing flooding issues there. While I
easily manned the push broom sweeping away the dirt that accumulated on the
road from the scraping, and also handled
that Stop/Slow sign for oncoming traffic,
I declined using the Bobcat. I was able to
also drive the dump truck if you consider driving being move the truck a few
feet at a time while progressing down the
road while the Bobcat filled the truck.
Each employee I encountered at Highway Maintenance was cheerful, professional, and enthusiastically expressed
their love of work knowing they were
providing a service for their fellow citizens of Calvert County. It was a long
hot day of work, but the service helpful
to the citizens. Some employees earned
that extra day off. I sure hope the others
I worked with that day realize that we
commissioners truly do appreciate them
as employees.

Sometimes our world can seem like

a scary place. With constant headlines
about human suffering, racial strife
and even possible warsour world at
home and abroad longs for peace. Monday, September 21 will mark the 33rd
annual International Day of Peace. It is
a time to recognize the efforts of those
who have worked hard to end conflict
and promote peace around the globe.
What your readers may not know is
that Community Mediation Center of
Calvert Countys mission is to assist
residents, organizations and businesses
in our county by providing peaceful
conflict resolution opportunities in a
nonjudgmental and confidential process. Our team of mediators meets with
people in a safe setting to help them
have sometimes difficult conversations
in order to resolve their differences.
We are available for a variety of situations, ranging from District and Circuit Court cases, Sheriffs Office referrals, family issues and parenting plans
to neighbor disputes, landlord/tenant
conflicts and a host of other situations.
And we provide all of our mediation
services at no cost to the participants.
We can sometimes forget that con-
flict is a shared human experience

we all have disagreements with others.
In most cases, we can resolve disagreements ourselves, but sometimes we
need help. In recognition of this important day of caring and sharing we
ask that you give mediation a try before
holding a grudge, resorting to violence,
destroying a relationship, calling the
police or even going to court. Conflict
may be inevitable, but how we handle
it is a choice.
If you would like more information
about the Center and our mediation
services, please go to www.calvertmediation.org .
We also invite you to observe a
Minute of Silence-Moment of Peace at

in a shared act of peace building.
Dear Editor:
You are invited to participate in an

evening of prayer for Governor Larry
Hogan on Saturday, Sept. 19, from 7-8
p.m. to be held at Chesapeake Church
in Huntingtown, Md.
As you know, the Governor is battling cancer and his office has asked for
clergy and their congregations throughout the State to gather together and pray
for his recovery.
Chesapeake Church has been asked
to host the event for Southern Maryland
and I sincerely hope your congregation
will want to attend and that you will
take an active role in the event itself.
The evening will begin at 7 p.m. with
music; there will be a general welcome
and then moments of prayer. Our hope
is to conclude with as many pastors
standing together in unified prayer for
Governor Hogans health.
The service will conclude with light
refreshments and fellowship.
While we expect elected officials
(from both political parties) to be present this is in no way a political event.
In these times of spiritual separation,
with people so polarized, I believe it is
Gods very hand that has the government coming to local churches seeking
prayer.
This is our opportunity as spiritual
leaders to demonstrate in unity that
Gods love and mercy surpass our
differences.
Please announce this in your bulletin,
promote it through social media and any
other communications you have.

Let us remember the calling of Scripture: I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people for
kings and all those in authority, that we
may live peaceful and quiet lives in all
godliness and holiness.
1 Timothy 2:1-2

Fishing Creek Trail
Feature Story
An Educational
Opportunity for All
By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer
Have you ever wondered what plants you

can put in your garden to repel mosquitoes?
Or maybe what oysters look like before
they hit the table? Have you been looking
for a new jogging trail? Fishing Creek Trail
in Chesapeake Beach can offer all that and
more.
The Chesapeake Beach Oyster Cultivation Society (CBOCS) has been making efforts to clean up Fishing Creek for the past
five years, said CBOCS President John
Bacon.
During these years, the
CBOCS volunteers have taken part in a massive program
to plant oysters in cages in the
creek to be transferred to an
artificial reef in the Chesapeake Bay. A group of volunteers gathered to plant oyster
spat under the trail on Sept.
16. The cages are changed every 10 to 12
months, Bacon said.
The Fishing Creek trail took 23 years to
approve and nine months to build, Bacon
said. It is one and a half miles long and
American Disabilities Act compliant, he
said.
In a parallel mission to cleaning up the
creek, and contributing to the efforts to
clean up the Chesapeake Bay, CBOCS
has been spearheading efforts to bring local students to the Fishing Creek Trail and
teach them about the Fishing Creek environment, oysters, and the animals that live
symbiotically with the oysters.
CBOCS started with Beach Elementary Schools fifth graders five years ago,
Bacon said. CBOCS then connected with
Calvert County Public Schools (CCPS) and
Chespax to get more schools involved. The
number of schools involved in the educational opportunities at Fishing Creek grows
every year, Bacon said. Currently, between
850 and 1,000 fifth grade students, chaper-
ones, and teachers visit Fishing Creek and

take part in the program every year.
The educational program takes students
along the trail; allowing them to see growing oysters, identify native plants and animals, and more, Bacon said. Every student
received a guidebook to take home so they
can share information with their parents
and families.
The fifth grade program is not the only
one at fishing creek. Chesapeake Beach is
gearing up for the first Happy Trails event
on Oct. 3 from 4 to 6:40 p.m., said Chesapeake Beach Community Development
Director Connie ODell. Happy Trails
is target toward adults,
ODell said, and will have
stops along the trail with
information about aquaculture, nature watching,
photography, and water
monitoring. There will be
local beer and wine tasting available at the event,
ODell said. Visitors to the trail will have a
chance to check out the mosquito repellant
garden planted at the end of the trail.
Its my desire to have different people
out on the trail, ODell said, saying that
the majority of individuals on the trail are
local residents who return daily or weekly.
She hopes the event will draw more attention to the Fishing Creek trail and bring in
visitors from beyond Chesapeake Beach.
In another attempt to bring attention to
the educational opportunities at Fishing
Creek, Chesapeake Beach has created a
field guide to the flora in the area, which
look five naturalists three days to put together, Bacon said. The field guide, and
brochure with information about planting a
mosquito repellent garden, are available at
the Chesapeake Beach town hall building.
For more information, visit www.chesapeake-beach.md.us.
Its my desire
to have different
people out on
the trail.

Activity
Operation Backpack Volunteers
Often, children who do not have the proper

school supplies are too ashamed to admit it
and end up falling behind. Students cannot
do their best if they do have the right tools.
With 23 percent of registered Calvert County
Public School students qualifying for free or
reduced lunch, it was clear to Childrens Aid,
Inc. we have students, neighbors, who will
start school without the proper school supplies. Thats the reason the Calvert County
nonprofit started Operation Backpack in
2009. Their goal is to highlight the importance of education as well as help students approach the beginning of the school year with
a greater sense of confidence and hope.
As Operation Backpack 2015 comes to a
close, Childrens Aid, Inc. would like to take
the opportunity to thank the members of the
community who supported their school supply drive and the business owners who allowed collection boxes to be placed in their
businesses. They would also like to recognize long-time Operation Backpack volunteer Gayle Haines for organizing a school
supply drive within The Potters Place Christian Fellowship again this year. The church
members generosity and volunteerism is
truly commendable.
With school supplies that were donated at

various locations and financial support from
Childrens Aid, the HELP Association, Inc.,
Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative
and the Optimist Club of Calvert County,
Operation Backpack was able to provide
new backpacks, school supplies and a new
age-appropriate book to 172 Calvert County
students for the 2015-2016 school year. It is
very rewarding to see the smiles on the faces
of the children when the backpack they had
hoped for (Frozen, Avengers, Sponge Bob,
etc.) is handed to them, said Krista Brezina,
Executive Director of Childrens Aid, Inc.
Childrens Aid, Inc. is a family-run charity with no paid staff and we would not have
been able to prepare and distribute 172 backpacks and supplies without help. We would
like to thank the 32 men, women and children
volunteers who gave up a Saturday morning
to organize school supplies, pack backpacks
and set up book tables. It was heart-warming
to see friends volunteering together and even
entire families who came to help us pack the
backpacks for distribution. Brezina said.

Robotics Certificate Adds Value

to Technology Degrees
Classes to be Held in CSMs New Robotics
Lab at Leonardtown Campus
Papa Johns Maryland - Beach Boys Pizza
The College of Southern Maryland is offering a Mechatronics Technology Robotics

Certificate to enhance skills and knowledge
not currently part of traditional engineering,
engineering technology or computer science
degrees.
Based on recommendations from CSMs
Engineering and Technology Advisory Council and local public school STEM (science,
technology, engineering and mathematics)
education coordinators, it was determined
that there was a need in Southern Maryland
for a robotics certificate program to serve students, technical professionals and teachers in
the community, said Business and Technology Division Chair Bernice Brezina.
This program is intended to be the first of
additional certificate and degree programs
in the field of mechatronics. The certificate provides an education in the concepts
and application of robotics technology and
includes an introduction to mechatronics
where students will learn about basic electronics and electrical drives in mechatronic
systems, basic motor control circuits and
simple programming of a microcontroller.

The program provides knowledge and
skills that will help engineering and computer science professionals advance in their
careers.
The Navy is in the process of developing and fielding an increasing number of autonomous, robotic, and unmanned systems
to support the men and women who defend
our country. The demand for graduates with
education in these areas continues to grow,
said Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Systems Engineer and Director, Autonomous Systems Strategic Thrust Stephen
Kracinovich, a member of CSMs Engineering and Technology Advisory Council.
Core classes will be offered in the new
Robotics Lab on the Leonardtown Campus. For information on prerequisites and
requirements, contact Brezina at 301-9347573 or BerniceB@csmd.edu.

Hand Picked Wines, Just for You!

By Sarah Miller
Staff Writer
Who doesnt like a good bottle of wine?
At Bay Wine and Spirits, people can come
in and find any type of wine they have a
taste for.
Owner Sharon Hall takes pride in remembering her customers and their favorite wines. Wine can be purchased by
the bottle or by the glass at Bay Wine
and Spirits, making it a great place to go
whether youre looking to stock up for
girls night out or a place to sit with a glass
of wine and relax. The store is located on
the waterfront in North Beach, and Hall
works to ensure the store has a stress free
atmosphere, with comfortable chairs in
the store to encourage people to stay a
while and there are occasional live bands
in the store.
Bay Wine and Spirits opened eight years
ago under a different owner. In 2009, the
owner decided to get out of the business
and Hall, with some help from her father,
decided to take over the wine store.
The wine store has become a fixture in
the community, Hall said. Several locals
stop in weekly for a glass of wine with a
friend or to buy a bottle. When someone
new moves into town, she likes to talk
to them and help them get to know their
neighbors. She likes to help people make
connections in their new community.
I really do enjoy being a big part of the

More Tasty Blessings

Senior
Citizen News
By Crista Dockray
Staff Writer
With smiles and warm welcomes, More Tasty
Blessings, a community kitchen and resource
center, is bringing home cooked meals to southern Calvert. The complimentary meals are offered twice a week at the East John Youth Center, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6 to 7 p.m., to
anybody, anywhere that is in need.
More Tasty Blessings started in July and is
the combined effort of three different churches,
the Solomons United Methodist Church and The
Lusby Charge, which includes both the Eastern
United Methodist Church and the St. John United Methodist Church.
More Tasty Blessings started as a response to
the need they saw in Southern Calvert. Eileen
Miller, the Lay Leader of Solomons UMC, said
that both northern Calvert and St. Marys already had many resources available for those in
need, but southern Calvert did not. In response,
the three churches decided to combine their love
and resources and help fill the void.
Were all about loving and serving within
the community, and one of the big things we live
by is to love one another, and this is an expression of our love, said Miller.
According to Pastor Marvin Wamble of the
Lusby Charge, More Tasty Blessings got its
name from the ministry Tasty Blessings, which
started in 2008 by St. John UMC. Tasty Blessings was a program that would bring lunches
to about 30 to 40 sick and shut-ins on Fridays.
With the passion to do more, More Tasty Blessings came into being.
Since their start, they have served on average
100 people per week, and have been growing in
numbers through word of mouth. According to
Miller, they already seem to have a set group of
regulars with new people every week.
The big thing for us is that we just want people there, we want people to show up and we
want to get to know our community better, said
Miller.
The meals, which are prepared on site, cost
anywhere from $60 to $100 per night, but much
of the food is generously donated by churchgoers, the surrounding community, Farming for
Hunger, Kingfishers and Lotus Kitchen.

Become a Tax-Aide Volunteer!
The AARP Tax-Aide program, sponsored by the Calvert
County Office on Aging, is looking for volunteers to serve

Tax-Aide volunteers will be required to pass the IRS and
Maryland certification tests. Training will be offered in late
2015 and/or early 2016.

They are, however, always looking for more

donations and volunteers to help.
More Tasty Blessings hopes to continue their
ministry indefinitely and they hope to add more
days to the schedule as the need grows. According to Pastor Wamble, they are reaching out to
schools and inviting families to come and join
and they are looking into getting a mode of
transportation to pick up and drop off those who
cannot come on their own.
Bottom line, its for the glory of God, said
Miller.
The East John Youth Center is located at 11835
Mill Bridge Rd. in Lusby. For more information
on the ministry or ways to help, visit their Facebook page or call the Lusby Charge at 410-3262987 or the Solomons UMC at 410-326-3278.

Daryl Hills drove to his third win of the season

in last Friday nights 20-lap Limited Late Model
feature at Potomac Speedway. The win for
Hills, his 15th career division feature win, also
secured the 2015 track championship aboard his
Ricky Lathroum owned Rocket no.55H.
Kerry King Sr. and Daryl Hills made up the
front row for the start of the event with Hills
surging into the race lead as the field stretched
out off turn two. Hills would eventually lead
all 20-circuits, but would have to repel a furious late race rush by eventual runner-up David
Williams, who had recovered from and early
race spin, to post the win. I saw Davids number
up there on the scoreboard late in the race and I
figured we were done, Hills stated in his post
race interview. He has a fast race car and it was
tough holding him off, but we were able to get
the job done. Hills feature score capped off his
championship season. This championship gos
to Ricky Lathroum and everyone who helped us
this season, Hills remarked. Ricky gave me
the chance to drive his car this season and to get
him three wins and a track title, I couldnt be
more proud. Steven Axtell Jr. was third with
Barry Lear Sr.and Billy Tucker rounding out the
top-five. Heats went to Hills and Williams.
Mike Franklin became a first time Potomac
champion with his 11th win of the season in
the 16-lap Street Stock feature. Franklin darted
from his third starting spot and would lead from
green to checker to post his 28th overall feature
win of the 2015 season. Scott Wilson, Chuck
Bowie, Barry Williams and Mike Raleigh
trailed Franklin at the finish.
In support class action John Burch scored his
second win of the season and career 49th in the
15-lap Hobby Stock main with Jonathan Raley
securing his second straight track title, Mikey

Latham rolled to his 5th win of the season in the
15-lap U-Car feature with Corey Swaim taking
the track championship and Ed Pope Sr.drove to
his 6th win of the season in the nightcap 15-lap
Strictly Stock feature with John Hardesty nailing down his third career division championship.
The end is near. Let the eulogies

begin.
It is shocking, this present state.
He was so good, so fast that such a
precipitous fall would have seemed
impossible just three years ago.
Three years ago. A lifetime ago.
On Sept. 9, 2012, Robert Griffin
III rolled into the visitor-unfriendly
New Orleans Superdome and led
Washington to a 40-28 victory over
the Saints. He threw for 320 yards,
rushed for 42, tossed two touchdown
passes and definitively outplayed
New Orleans QB Drew Brees, a future Hall of Famer.
A few bumps would follow: a
concussion, a 3-6 record after nine
games and a late-season knee injury
against the Ravens. But Griffin was
at the helm for six of seven consecutive wins to conclude the season, a
stretch that delivered Washingtons
first division title since 1999 and
only its second home playoff game
since 1992.
A hero was born.
By the end of the 2012 regular season, Griffins star transcended football. Bright, fun, confident, brave,
charismatic, interactive with fans,
African American and from a military family, nearly everyone could
find something in Griffin they could
relate to and/or respect. He was still
a quarterback, but not just a quarterback. He was an entity. A fountain of
hope. A source of pride. A reason to
believe, not just in a football team,
but that achievement any achievement resided at the confluence of
opportunity, a positive attitude and
strong work ethic.
Griffin, circa 2012, could do no
wrong. Griffin, circa 2015, can do no
right on or off the field. Demoted
and mired in controversy (much of
his creation), his tenure in the town
that once chanted his name seems
near its conclusion and his future in
the NFL, a league temporarily captivated by his talent, is murky at best.
I dont have the space and its
doubtful you have the desire to rehash the various reasons for Griffins fall. Like everything with the
quarterback, its unnecessarily complicated. The factors include a serious and wholly avoidable knee injury (shame on you Mike Shanahan),
distrust between organization and
player, Griffins passive-aggressive
manipulation, controversial tweets,
personal logos and endless self-promotion. But mostly, Griffins failure

can be condensed into this simply
fact: post knee injury, hes been terrible on the field.
The question is why? Why cant he
read defenses efficiently? Why is his
footwork terrible? Why is his pocket
presence so obviously deficient?
Why, despite his physical gifts and
after three full seasons in the NFL,
does he still look so rudimentary behind center?
Did Griffin fail to learn or did his
organization and coaches fail to nurture his growth and teach the position adequately?
These questions arent unique to
Griffin and Washington. The NFL
habitually chews up and spits out
blue chip quarterbacks. Is it a player
or team issue? In Cool Hand Luke,
Captains famous Failure to Communicate speech includes this line:
Some men you just cant reach. In
the risky business of quarterback
prospecting, there will always be
kids who are destined to fail, regardless of circumstance, but the burnout
rate is still alarming. Literally half
the quarterbacks drafted in the first
round flame out. Its damning proof
that the formula for developing talent at the games most important
position confounds the league and
footballs brightest minds.
As for Griffin and Washington,
specifically, was the quarterback
just another college spread-offense
dynamo that failed to translate or
the latest victim of a dysfunctional
franchise? Who knows? Perhaps the
pending documentary will provide
answers. Theres certainly shared
blamed between player and organization. And maybe thats the usefulness of The Griffin Chronicles:
a failed mentor-mentee relationship.
Trust and respect were lost. Impatience and stubbornness were pervasive. One party failed to adapt its
teaching techniques to a unique talent; the other failed to submit himself to a new situations demands.
The result - a lost career and a franchise in an inescapable death spiral
indicts all involved.
Soif youre in a position to influence lives or a person in need of
guidance, heed the mutual failings in
Griffins cautionary tale. I suppose
that puts us all on notice.
