The well of intriguing Robert Griffin III trivia will probably run dry at some point, but we haven't reached that sad ending yet. Until Dan Hellie sat down for a jovial interview with the quarterback this week, for example, I didn't know that Griffin recently read "The Art of War," owns more than 100 pairs of socks, and would take Durant over LeBron, because the former is "from here," as Griffin put it. "And Durant's also a Redskins fan," he added.

Our own Mike Jones passes along this RGIII tidbit. During his once-a-week presser at Redskins Park, Robert Griffin III gets asked a lot of questions.
