ASHBURN, Va. - The Washington Redskins finally allowed Robert Griffin III to speak. So he referenced Winston Churchill and played along with the uncertainty whether he might make his return Monday night.Griffin spoke for 1 minute, 17 seconds Friday near his locker, the first time he has addressed his injury since the day after he dislocated his left ankle in Week 2.He did not take questions. His appearance was scheduled by the team after reporters suggested that Griffins unavailability to the media was a possible violation of NFL access rules.Coach Jay Gruden hasnt ruled out Griffin for Monday nights game against the Dallas Cowboys, but the coach said the plan remains for Colt McCoy to start. McCoy played the second half after Kirk Cousins was benched at halftime of Sundays win over the Tennessee Titans.Here is Griffins speech, in its entirety:Howre yall doing? Everybodys waiting, I can see it. You guys are ready. Nah, man, a quote that I stumbled upon during this process of being injured, being out, was by Winston Churchill, and it says, Courage is what it takes to stand up and do something. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.So during this time Ive been listening, learning, growing as a player in this offence. Its our job to help this team win, and, you know, Ive been there for Kirk and Colt as much as I possibly can, and being there for this team to make sure theyre as ready as possible during this process. And it (stinks) that I cant get out there and play with them and help them get wins, but Ive been listening to the doctors, listening to the trainers, listening to coaches. Were not going to rush my ankle.You know, its a blessing that I wasnt hurt as bad as it couldve been. Its been a blessing and Ive been recovering right on time, so thats good. But at the same time we dont want to rush that. And its Dallas week. We all want to beat Dallas. We know what this game means for our season, so thats what Ive been trying to do this week, and making sure that Im ready to go, making sure this teams ready to go, and whoever plays quarterback is ready to go. Thats all Ive got to say. Beat Dallas.For the literary record, the quote widely attributed to Churchill actually reads: Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.For the football record, Griffin was again listed as limited in practice Friday. Gruden said McCoy took most of the first-team snaps, and that Griffin took first-team and scout-team snaps. The coach said he wont announce Griffins status for the game until shortly before kickoff.Were still preparing for Colt to be the starter, Gruden said, and Robert is continuing with his practice exertion.___AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Joseph White on Twitter: http://twitter.com/JGWhiteAPPrince Fielder Jersey .

Coming off a 6-0 drubbing at Chelsea on Saturday, Arsenal endured another demoralizing result after rallying for a 2-1 lead -- only to concede a fluke equalizer.Seattle, WA - Seattle Sounders FC will attempt to extend their lead atop the Western Conference on Monday as the club welcomes the Los Angeles Galaxy to CenturyLink Field. The Sounders sit six points clear of second-place Real Salt Lake at the top of the West, and Sigi Schmids side will be attempting to collect a fifth win in six league games when his men come up against the Galaxy. You can watch the game live tonight on TSN2 starting at 10pm et/7pm pt. Seattle returns to league action for the first time in two weeks after notching a 2-0 win over Cascadia Cup rivals Portland. Clint Dempsey scored in the 76th minute against the Timbers to hand his team the lead, and Marco Pappa added a second goal to secure all three points for the Sounders. Pappas goal was his second this season and the second goal he has scored in the past five games. With DeAndre Yedlin away on international duty with the United States, Pappas defensive responsibilities on the left side increased, and Schmid believes that the 26-year-old has shown signs that his game is continuing to develop. "I see his game continuing to grow and develop," Schmid said of Pappa. "Theres some good, good defensive moments hes given us on the flank, and that was nnever considered a trait of Marcos.ddddddddddddHes on the field because he helps our attack, not because we want him to be a great left side defender, but hes got to do some of that work and has really grown as a player. He has found a mix and he knows how to find those pockets of space, which are really important." The Galaxy saw their eight-match unbeaten run ended last weekend at Sporting Kansas City in a 2-1 defeat, and the club will be eager to get back in the win column in an effort to climb toward the top of the conference. Los Angeles went behind in the 10th minute to a Benny Feilhaber free kick before Lawrence Olum scored just after the hour mark to double the advantage. Robbie Keane found the net for the Galaxy 11 minutes from time to notch his 10th goal of the season and his third in the last two games, but his team was unable to equalize. "The more I get on the ball, the more I can make things happen," Keane said. "Ive done that my whole career and the way we play certainly suits my style of play. But at the end of the day, weve lost the game. We gave up a good goal, then scored a good goal to get back (into the game). We showed good spirit in the second half and gave a good battle."
