I'm sure many of you have seen it, but the "Lost Treasures" thing about George Allen is the best Redskins Film they've made, IMO. It's one of their best period. I believe it's called "Three Cheers for the Redskins" and features a lot of outtakes from Allen's first training camp as well as current interviews with people like Diron Talbert, Roy Jefferson, and Speedy Duncan, among many others.
Watch Roy Jefferson panic when he gets stung by a bee in the RFK locker room.

Yea its pretty great. Instant classic. Notice the sign on the practice facility that reads 'the redskins' (also has the indian head logo) you can see the same sign anytime at fedex field on the outside of the stadium near the ticket windows.

I was watching the 'Game of the Week' from 2003 and let's talk about how far we've come.. Some of the names playing KEY roles in that game:
Trung Candidate
Lennie Friedman
Darrell Russell (RIP)
Patrick Johnson
Peppi Zellner
David Terrell
Ifayeni Ohalete
John Simon (was the 2nd string HB that day)
Bruce Smith
Regan Upshaw

Hue Jackson called the plays, George Edwards was the defensive coordinator..

It's so much better to be a Redskins fan now!

Reminds me of a classic Peppi vs. Bruce Smith anecdote.

Bruce Smith and Peppi Zellner had to be separated at practice one time after the two got into a heated argument -- that nearly turned physical. Zellner at one point in practice said something to Smith along the lines of, "Why don't you just get your sack, so you can finally retire."

Smith then fired back by asking Zellner how many sacks he has had in his career, which is obviously nearly 200 less than Smith's total. Smith also said Zellner could put his best years together and Smith's worst years are still more impressive. Zellner then hit below the belt by insisting the only reason Smith is still on the roster is because he is social with owner Snyder. Smith fired back by agreeing with the younger player, then saying all he had to do is place one call to that same owner and Zellner would be kyboshed as a 'Skin. At that point, Zellner told Mr. Sacks he's ready to take on the old man. Smith wanted to oblige and teammates jumped in.

Thanks Paintrain. I thought I'd never get to bring up Peppi on the Warpath!
