Danica Patrick Nails Handstand In ‘Playful’ Poolside Instagram Photo

Danica Patrick is at it again. If you follow Patrick’s Instagram even somewhat closely, you know she’ll do a handstand just about anywhere. Middle of a running river? Check. On top of her No. 10 in victory lane? Well, maybe someday. Heck, not even a pair of awkward boots can stop the Stewart-Haas Racing driver from getting her yoga on. And recently, in the midst of the playful day by the pool she’d been “craving,” Patrick took her balancing act atop a wall. The question here is, just what role did Patrick’s boyfriend, fellow-NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr., play in all of this?

Nationals swap Shawn Kelley for Ryan Madson after Nats’ set-up man lands on 10-Day DL...

After giving up just two homers on 505 fastballs in 2016, Kelley had given up six on 198 fastballs before he landed on

Josh Doctson looks good to go, new starters at LB and other practice notes

Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson appears to be headed to doing something he hasn’t done since last September—taking snaps in a game. It’s a question of when, not if. The 2016 first-round pick left practice early on August 6 with a hamstring injury. While the injury wasn’t as serious as it was first feared, it still has kept him out of the Redskins’ preseason opener against the Ravens and out of practice until yesterday. Doctson has not appeared in a game for the Redskins since last September, when he played a total of 31 snaps in the team’s first two games before being shut down due to a lingering Achilles injury. As the team took the field at Redskins Park, Doctson came out in shoulder pads
