I'll Have Another, fresh off winning the second leg of the Triple Crown, nipped at anyone who came by Sunday morning. He was more playful than ornery. Someone told trainer Doug O'Neill that the colt's eyelids looked heavy. "He's always got that look," O'Neill shot back. It's true. I'll Have Another appeared only mildly bothered yesterday after running a mile and three-sixteenths in under two minutes and being herded into a crowded winner's circle. After his connections partied late into the night outside of his barn - except for O'Neill, who went to his hotel room with his wife and kids and ordered room service - I'll Have Another was spry at dawn.

Last week, on what would have been his father's 79th birthday, Chad Unitas visited his grave at Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens. There, on the edge of a pond filled with ducks and ringed by weeping willows, he knelt by the marble marker and spoke with the one many call football's greatest quarterback. "I go there a couple of times a month, to ask my dad's advice about this and that," Unitas said. "He's been gone 10 years, but I can still hear his voice. " Johnny Unitas died of a heart attack Sept.

How could The Sun produce a historical list of the most outstanding athletes in Maryland's history and not include Tom Matte? I don't even want to guess. One of the criteria was that the player had to have lived in Maryland for three years. Tom Matte has maintained his home in Maryland ever since he first joined the Colts in 1961 - a total of 51 years - when he first was a running back behind Lenny Moore . A professional football team in those days had only 38 players, which meant that each player had to be versatile and able to fill in at any spot.

Lenny Moore can hardly attend an NFL function without some gnarly old linebacker wagging his finger at the 78-year-old Baltimore Colts Hall of Fame running back and telling Moore something he already knows. "Lenny," the old-timer will say, "I had a bead on you so many times out there, I was going to knock the living hell out of you. But then I'd look up and, all of a sudden, here comes Jim Parker - and he'd get me first. " Moore will listen, smile and nod. Then he'll look skyward and thank the man upstairs - No. 77, the big lug with the horseshoe on his helmet - for running interference.

From The Aegis dated April 30, 1987: A Harford woman was sentenced 25 years ago to five years in prison, which equated to "one year for each bullet she fired into her husband's body. " The woman never denied shooting her unemployed husband, but said she did it because she feared the man she had lived with for 19 years and feared for her children. Not only did her husband abuse his step-daughter, he also fought with his two sons with the woman. She pleaded guilty to manslaughter.

RG3 has better support Sam Farmer Los Angeles Times Robert Griffin III will have a better rookie season because he'll be surrounded by a better supporting cast. The Redskins have a better-than-respectable defense, and an offense that's primed to succeed with a double-threat quarterback like RG3, especially with his accuracy on deep passes. That's not to say Luck is the wrong choice for the Colts. He should eventually round into an elite NFL quarterback.
