What do you get when you have eight hungry NFL linebackers and just one rookie in the entire group?
Keenan Robinson definitely learned the answer to that question last night.
His wallet now much lighter, Robinson treated seven of his fellow linebacker teammates to the annual rookie dinner last night in Washington, D.C.
In attendance was Robinson, Lorenzo Alexander, London Fletcher, Rob Jackson, Ryan Kerrigan, Brian Orakpo, Perry Riley and Chris Wilson.
Several of the guys went to Twitter to document this special occasion. Here’s a few of the tweets in order of their appearance last night:

Ouch.
Nevertheless, it seems as though Robinson and the guys had a great time together last night, sharing a meal and watching the BCS National Championship between Alabama and Notre Dame.
Though paying the tab is certainly a pain — Kerrigan dished out some serious cash last season — it’s just something that goes along with the territory as a rookie linebacker with the Redskins.

How in the hell can you rack up a bill like that with only 8 men? Place must be pricey

That’s a lot of mortgage payments for me. Smh. Even if I had their money, I could never do that. I like that they’re close, stay that way.
Get well TEAM! I miss you all already.

…”out of taste” given the economy right now! Thought it was a joke when I first started reading, but apparently not. First Blog that I have not felt good about reading.

Hopefully you all are planning some charitable donations to make up for that haste. Pardon the pun, but tasteless. Maybe better stick to football.

Rob and Robyn need to get over it. They earn it, they can spend!!!!!!

Great idea! Matching donation for the meal would be the right thing to do…a local food pantry?

Right Rob and Robyn, because consumers spending money is BAD for the economy……….
