Virginia state senator injured in home; another person found dead inside

Ricky Carioti/The Washington Post - Creigh Deeds is seen while he was a Virginia gubernatorial Democratic candidate in 2009.

A Virginia state senator was seriously injured early Tuesday in an assault that occurred at his house in Bath County, west of Charlottesville. A second person inside the home was found dead, according to Virginia State Police.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch reported that Sen. Creigh Deeds (D-Bath) was stabbed and critically injured and that the dead person is his son, Gus, who suffered a gunshot wound.

Corinne Geller, a spokeswoman for the Virginia State Police, would not comment beyond a brief statement issued Tuesday morning. Police were planning a more detailed briefing around noon in Charlottesville.
The statement says police responded to Deeds’s home about 7:25 a.m.. The senator was flown to University of Virginia Health System Hospital.

Mike Shanahan, with his job under scrutiny, defends his tenure, says cap penalty hurt

• 
  

Mike Shanahan said Monday he believes the Washington Redskins are headed in the right direction under his leadership despite this season’s struggles, delivering what amounted to a defense of his four-year coaching tenure in the face of mounting criticism following Sunday’s loss that dropped Washington into last place in the NFC East.
Speaking at a news conference at Redskins Park, Shanahan deflected questions about his job security but said the Redskins will have a chance to improve their roster next season after a two-year salary cap penalty expires.

In evaluating their coach and roster, the Redskins must ask whether they really have the talent to succeed.

“I think you’ve got to take a look at a number of things when you take a look at the direction of a football team,” Shanahan said. “I think when you take a look at the offensive numbers . . . that just doesn’t happen naturally with a lot of new players. We talked about it last year. We had six new players on our team, and putting up the numbers that we’re putting up are pretty impressive, especially with losing the $36 million salary cap over those two years time frame.”
Shanahan’s comments came a day after the Redskins’ record fell to 3-7 with the 24-16 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Redskins have a record of 24-34 under Shanahan, who signed a five-year contract worth about $7 million per season when he was hired by owner Daniel Snyder. The Redskins have failed to build on last season’s NFC East title, forged with a seven-game winning streak to close the regular season, and fans and some media observers increasingly have speculated Shanahan won’t be back for a fifth season.
Shanahan declined to respond directly to a question Monday about whether he thinks the Redskins’ results during the remainder of this season will determine his future with the team or whether he instead has been given assurances by Snyder he will return next season.
“I don’t talk about those things during the season for obvious reasons,” he said.
It does not appear that such an assurance has been given. A person familiar with the Redskins’ planning said in recent days it was “too early” to know whether Shanahan’s job is safe beyond this season. NFL coaches often are given an extension to avoid coaching in the final season of a contract.
The Redskins are in the second season of dealing with their two-year, $36 million salary cap reduction imposed by the NFL for the manner in which the team structured players’ contracts during the sport’s season without a salary cap in 2010. Shanahan said that penalty has hurt the team. But the Redskins, he said, will be able to do more in the upcoming offseason and beyond.
“You don’t have the type of depth,” Shanahan said. “But you’re able to put a very solid football team together. And in the future, it will get better because we do have the ability to get more depth. We’ve got the ability to add some players on both sides of the football, and that gives you a chance to get better as a football team.”
Redskins players vowed after the loss in Philadelphia to continue to play hard during the remainder of the season. The Redskins host the San Francisco 49ers, the defending NFC champions, Monday night at FedEx Field to begin a three-game home stand.

Bru et «les options puissance»

Yannick Bru, l'entraîneur national adjoint, chargé des avants, privé de Ouedraogo et de Maestri, qui auraient dû jouer face aux Springboks, samedi prochain, lève un voile sur l'architecture du pack bleu qui sera annoncé jeudi matin.

Samedi, le quinze de France aura besoin de la masse de Sébastien Vahaamahina pour défier les Springboks sur la ligne d'avantage. (L'Equipe)

«Début novembre, nous avions une idée, dans un scenario idéal, pour nous présenter devant l’Afrique du sud au troisième test.» Une rotation était prévue. Mais voilà «le carton rouge de Yoann Maestri» face aux Tonga, samedi, «pénalise l’équipe. Car Yoann était inscrit dans le projet, face aux Boks.» Pas de quoi déstabiliser l’édifice bleu, mais quand même… «On sait, d’expérience, qu’il y a toujours des désillusions, et des ajustements à effectuer. Là, il y en aura beaucoup. Parce qu’en plus de Yoann Maestri, il y a la blessure de Fulgence Ouedraogo, qui n’avait pas été sélectionné face aux Tonga par hasard.» Et là, Yannick Bru, responsables des avants du quinze de France précise : «Pour être bien équilibré, il faut deux joueurs aériens dans un pack.» Maestri et Ouedraogo étaient ceux-là. Du coup, «dans le champ des possibles ça limite les options.»

Des failles à exploiter

Hier dimanche, l’Afrique du sud a battu sans ciller l’Ecosse, 28-0, sous une pluie froide. Un succès qui fait suite à celui enregistré à Cardiff, face au Pays de Galles, une semaine plus tôt. «L’Afrique du sud, c’est un rouleau compresseur devant, avec énormément de vitesse derrière,» note Yannick Bru, conscient de la force de l’adversaire qui sera proposé aux Tricolores, samedi, 21h. « Il y a de la qualité dans le «un contre un». Les Springboks marquent beaucoup d’essais sur des exploits individuels, puisqu’ils dominent leurs adversaires.» Une faille dans laquelle s’engouffrer ? «On a l‘impression que collectivement et stratégiquement, il y a des choses à exploiter. Mais leur jeu est brutal, physique et terriblement efficace, parce qu’au niveau international, c’est avant tout de la domination physique.»

Des qualités différentes

Picamoles et Domingo alignés d'entrée face aux Springboks ? Jeudi, Philippe Saint-André annoncera la composition de l’équipe qui sera alignée au Stade de France. Pour compenser les absences de Ouedraogo et de Maestri, les retours de Domingo et de Picamoles, deux joueurs puissants, difficiles à faire tomber, sont des signaux forts. «Devant, les Springboks dégagent une puissance hors normes. Face à la Nouvelle-Zélande il nous fallait un équilibre entre vitesse et puissance. Contre l’Afrique du sud, ce ne seront pas forcément les mêmes qualités dont l’équipe de France aura besoin. Dans le groupe des trente, nous avons des options «puissance» qu’il faudra utiliser.» sans doute faut-il s’attendre à voir le pilier gauche Domingo et le troisième-ligne centre Picamoles débuter la rencontre face aux Springboks.
