WESTMINSTER, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens cornerback Fabian Washington has been lobbying coach John Harbaugh to get back on the field in the next few days.

He's currently on the physically unable to perform list due to a torn anterior cruciate ligament that was surgically repaired this offseason. He hopes to practice as soon as Friday.

"I'm just gonna say this: Don't be surprised to see me," Washington said. "Me and Harbs talk every day about this. So, he's being precautious. Of course, I don't want to get hurt. At the same time, man, I'm just ready to be one of the guys again."

Washington went so far as to say that if the Ravens opened the season today, he would be prepared to line up and cover wide receivers.

"The speed is there, my agility is fantastic," Washington said. "The knee is not 100 percent. I can't sit here and say that, but it's really close."

Unlike most players who regard training camp as something to be tolerated, not embraced, Washington is genuinely excited.

"They need me come season time and not right now, but I feel like for me to be the best I can be, I need as many practice as possible," Washington said. "Not just because of my knee. I'm one of those guys, I can't just turn that switch on. I actually have to practice and get my timing down."

Sterling sliver jewelry, particularly bracelets, is a staple of fashionable women everywhere. This type of pandora beads is durable yet so beautiful. The versatility is outstanding; it goes with every outfit whether with jeans or with a designer gown. For instance, movie star Sandra Bullock wore a silver cuff bracelet to the 2009 MTV Movie Awards in May 2009. A silver cuff bracelet makes an audacious statement, yet it is lightweight and is flexible so that it can fit a variety of wrist sizes. Another popular type of bracelets is the silver charm bracelet. There are many shapes and designs for the charms that are attached to the bracelet.

I wish him only the best. Get well, young man.
This stuff happens, didn't cause Terrell Davis to retire, as that actually was the knee injury he sustained while tackling a Jet on an INT - that being said he was always and the donkeys cognizant of this issue with Daivs as well...migraines and nuerological problems are real for damn sure and don't make an NFL players life any easier - and seriously "karma" - give it a rest already - Favre's not the devil, hasn't been sighted hanging with Lucifer or sacrificying any virgins - well lately anyway - that was the "before PG Favre" that's marketed for mass consumption...
