I used to go to training camp back in Carlisle every summer. I met and have pics with every significant player from the 80's Redskins. My highlite would be Joe Gibbs...one year I came up with a press pass and was able to get on the Dickinson Field sideline for the entire week. One of the days I had about a 10 minute conversation with Coach Gibbs after practice...I was a teenager who he never laid eyes on before and he spent a good 5 to 10 minutes with me talking. He asked where I was from and when I told him Philly we started talking about some of the Eagles Skins games in Philly that I had gone too. That was when Buddy coached them and you could tell how much he enjoyed beating them. I will never forget that day...Joe Gibbs is all class...truely a great man.
