One by one, the Wilde Lake High School football players reach for a small metal sign, thumping and thwacking it as they file toward the stadium.They understand the message on the dented green sign, written in yellow lettering. It reads: "Every Player, Every Play."Although it's an age-worn saying passed down for years in this Columbia football program, this season's Wildecats personify these words, shaping a team that is light on egos and superstars but strong on character.Historically, Wilde Lake has based its identity on the skills of a couple of standouts.

Navy (1-2) at Rice (0-3)Series: Rice leads, 3-2Outlook: Both teams have played unforgiving schedules with five of the six games against foes with a combined 12-3 record. Navy will have to perform better than it did in a heartbreaking 14-10 loss to Boston College, when the Midshipmen were 1-for-13 on third down and missed two field goals. Rice, which had been held to one field goal in its first two games, finally got going offensively in the second half against Texas last week, but quarterback Chad Richardson is only 4-for-20 passing and the running game is producing just 3.1 yards a carry.

There haven't been any punches thrown at this year's Ravens training camp, but there has been plenty of sparring. After Domonique Foxworth made a diving interception Thursday, the former Western Tech and Maryland standout slapped hands with fellow cornerback Frank Walker a couple of times before leaping for an animated chest bump. All this occurred a few feet from the offense. One play later, wide receiver Justin Harper caught a deep pass down the sideline and made a mad dash to the goal post, where he tossed up the football as if he were LeBron James shooting a jumper.

QB C Joe Flacco completed only nine of 23 passes for 135 yards, and he was off on just about every long ball he threw. Flacco will have to make plays from here on out. Fortunately, he seems to rebound well after sluggish performances. OL B The line made strong initial contact and held on to its blocks. Pass protecting, for the most part, was good. With some help, left tackle Jared Gaither held Miami outside linebacker Joey Porter to three tackles and no sacks. WR C- With the exception of Derrick Mason, did these guys play?

Tom Brady went from the disappointment of a Super Bowl loss to the devastation of an injury that likely will keep him out the rest of the season, according to media reports. The injury to his left knee is serious, and Brady isn't expected to play again this season, according to NFL.com and Yahoo.com. He left yesterday's season-opening win against visiting Kansas City in the first quarter after being hit on the left leg by Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard. Coach Bill Belichick provided no information on the injury, but Pollard had a diagnosis of his own. "He was in a lot of pain," he said.

Body parts Between Tom Brady's right foot and Peyton Manning's left knee, the NFL's two best quarterbacks didn't play a snap during the preseason. Both injuries were shrouded in mystery by the Patriots and Colts. There was even speculation Manning (above) had two knee surgeries in the offseason. The AFC crown could hang in the balance. Feeling the heat The Dallas Cowboys haven't won a playoff game since 1996, a drought that covers five losses. Jerry Jones (above) shelled out $70 million in guarantees to keep seven players and offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, and added Adam Jones.

News item: There are reports that Cincinnati wide receiver Chad Johnson has gone through with his threat to legally change is last name to Ocho Cinco so he can wear his nickname on his jersey without incurring the disciplinary wrath of the Bengals or the NFL. My take: Nothing he might do would surprise me. Those of us who constantly crave attention will do anything to get it. Did you know my name used to be Chad Johnson, too? News item: Orioles pitcher Daniel Cabrera lost the appeal of his six-day suspension for allegedly throwing at Alex Rodriguez.

Annapolis Summer Garden Theatre completes its season with the third in a fresh trio of less-familiar musicals with music from the 1940s to 1960s: All Shook Up, which celebrates the music of Elvis Presley and offers light, fun fare for a summer evening. Joe DiPietro's musical, which ran for 213 Broadway performances in 2005, takes its gender-bending premise of mistaken identities from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. It also reminds us of Footloose in its small-town prohibition of fun, and of Hairspray in its welcoming of interracial dating, with a dash of Grease and Bye Bye Birdie thrown in. In All Shook Up, leather-jacketed roustabout Chad arrives, newly sprung from jail, in a small Midwest town in search of motorcycle repair and adventure.
