DigitalSports is previewing every 30 teams in the Northern Region. That includes Concorde District punching bag Fairfax.
The bad news? Fairfax is in the Concorde, with Centreville, Oakton, Chantilly, Robinson and Westfield, the defending state champs. Ouch. So much that Fairfax is 0-18 tries since joining in 2005.
The good news? The Rebels bring back their quarterback, running back and entire offensive line and their coach, Chris Haddock. That's about it.
Telling quote? "We've won four game in the last four years. So if we could win five games this season, that would be a tremendous boost for our program." Hell coach, if you just win one in the Concorde, it would be a tremendous boost.

5 P.M. — Virginia Preps Ranks Top Football Programs of the Decade (16-20)
Virginia Preps continues with the top-25 football programs of the decade: http://virginiapreps.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=834553
Finally, a Northern Region team. After two solid AA teams, Virginia Preps smartens up and throws legendary Hampton coach Mike Smith in the rankings. But I would contend that an 81-14 record (Hampton's) would trump a 79-14 record (Robinson's) despite the Rams having one more region championship berth. The Eastern Region is much more difficult on an annual basis than the Northern Region. Sorry fans.
Nevertheless, Robinson's resume is pretty darn impressive. However, the Rams have only qualified for the playoffs in two of the last three seasons. Maybe it has something to do with joining the Concorde District?
*NOTE— This was an outstanding first week. I hope that you continue to browse and comment. Until 7 a.m. on Monday, have a good weekend. Stay safe and keep reading.*

11 A.M. — Thomas Robinson Sifting Through Offers
i95ballerz.com on Thomas Robinson's Recruiting Road: http://www.i95ballerz.com/story%20-%20thomas%20robinson%20first%20three%20visits.html
Thomas Robinson spent last season at Riverdale Baptist and will spend this coming year (his senior season) at New Hampshire's Brewster Academy. Basically, the 6-foot-8, 217-pound forward has his list of colleges, ranging from Kansas to Memphis to the University of Miami. Not to mention that Duke and Georgetown have expressed interest.
According to the article (it's a decent Web site despite the non-professional name), Robinson, who averaged 18 points and 12 rebounds last season, will visit Memphis, Kansas and USC. He'll use his official visit when USC hosts Ohio State. It's going to be hard to turn down the beautiful California skies when the top two teams in the nation (Georgia will lose by then) will face each other. Consider it a down deal for the D.C. native.
