I was hoping at that time I would never again see anything like it, and can never imagine hearing of it as if it's something good.

I think you're basically correct. Everybody loves a good hit, but ideally the "victim" gets up soon after, if not immediately after. Unfortunately, the Redskins have not had the best of luck against the Cowboys these past few years. As a result, we have to take joy in the small things such as LaVar's hit. Had we won more games versus Dallas recently I'm not sure we would look back on that one hit with such fondness
