Re: Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?
 

I'm gonna go with Art Monk. The classiest person I ever saw play the game in addition to having the most "pure" set of hands in NFL history. Growing up in Loudoun County, VA I got to meet him many times and he would always give you such a warm and humble smile along with some kind words. HOF??? Just because he is not a self promoter?

My second favorite Redskin is anyone wearing that beautiful jersey!

[QUOTE=XXVI;401787]Darrell Green is a punk ass bitch. I love nostalgia, but he doesn't deserve all the praise he gets.

I knew Green a little growing up and he is a very private person. He made a choice in his career that he wanted a seperate life off the field. He's actually a very nice guy who would help anyone. I was there when one of my friends asked him for an autograph and he said the same thing, "I'm sorry, I don't do autograph's". Instead he gave us a couple of tips on coverage and told us he looked forward to seeing us play. Don't get down on a guy who made a choice for his family, every man has the right to deal with fame their own way.

Kurt Gouveia was an awesome player!!! He would also come give clinics and help out at my practices in high school.

[QUOTE=SKINS73;401776]remember how Dave Butz use to have his kid carry his helmet off the field? that was cool.[/QUOTE]

Awesome memory, I remember that very well. It was the '88 Super Bowl I last recall he and his son were on the sidelines. In fact, I believe it was John Madden that kept referring to Butz' helmet when they had a camera on him during the game and Madden said that it looked like a "used car" it was so scratched up! Great player Butz was.

[QUOTE=Seahawks_Fan;401649]Mine is probably John Riggins. Glad we don't have to play him tomorrow!!![/QUOTE]

Riggins is mine as well. It was pretty cool to see him during the broadcast of the VT vs. Kansas game in the Orange Bowl the other night. One of our boys said "Dad, are you sure that's him? He looks so old!" Oh well, if we lived the life he has we'd all look old I guess! :) I've heard some say he is a jerk in real life, and he has certainly had his adventures made public courtesy of the media, but as a player, none were more exciting than The Diesel.

Now...Beat the 'Hawks Redskins!!!

Re: Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?
 

Anyway, politely declining to do walk-up autographs isn't such a bad thing, as long as the guy's not a dick about it. People in general have a hard time understanding that celebrities and pro athletes have a right to their privacy and don't really want to be accosted 24/7. I for one don't think they should be forced to live in compounds and hide from the public.

Yeah, but a Seagull fan asked. Visiting team posters rarely use search functions to be courteous forumgoers :)

Well... shoot... I believe that deserves a negative... actually, a double negative as a Seagirl fan.

[QUOTE=SFREDSKIN;401656]Should have been a first time ballot. Wasn't Largent a first time ballot?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, he was. I went to Canton for his induction!

Monk will be there one of these days. It is a big mystery to me why he isn't there already.

Re: Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?
 

Sean Taylor was my absolute favorite. But I'll have to say there are many more that I loved to watch. Chris Hanburger, Diron Talbert, Ken Houston, Pat Fisher, Monte Coleman, Darrell Green, Riggo, Sonny Jurgensen, Mike Nelms just to name a few.. oh gotta mention Dave Butz and the dancing bear Ron Mcdole

Man, over half those guys have been in Fredericksburg (where I live) in the past year with Monte coming next month.

Re: Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?
 

Without a doubt, it has to be Art Monk. I wear my #81 jersey with pride every gameday.

Re: Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?
 

I'm still a relatively young redskins fan so i don't have all those old time redskins.

Lavar was my favorite for a long long time but the whole time he was leaving he acted like a child. Sean Taylor is definitely my favorite. Every once in a while it hits you again and it seems new that Sean is gone. It was so much fun to watch him play. I would want to be on defense just for the possibility that he would rock somebody. I watched the pro bowl intently when he was in the game. He was the most fun player to watch. I don't think i'll ever enjoy watching somebody as much.

You take your pick! I loved them all!

Re: Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?
 

Let's see if I can answer this one.....

Why James Arthur Monk ! Hands down. I remember when I played street football as a kid I was the Art Monk of my streets team. I used to try to do everything like he did on the field. From the way he ran his out routes, the tip toe catches, everything. It was crazy. He is by far my all time favorite. After that, there are so many. Monty Coleman, Dave Butz, Jacoby, Gouveia, Diddier, Mark Mosely, Joey T, Doug Williams, Brad Edwards, Alvin Walton, Dexter Manly, Gary Clark, and TRE EFFIN JOHNSON !!!!

THAT MAN WAS A REDSKIN !!!! I remember when the Skins played Dallas and I think it was Charles Haley sacked Jeff George and drug him about 10 yards up the field with no penalty of course and Tre Johnson got ejected after fighting because of it. You don't see that now, he was the last O lineman that we had that had a mean streak IMO. I'm sure I forgot a lot of names but you get my point I loved them all and I still do.

HAIL TO THE REDSKINS !!!
