Re: 10 Greatest Redskins You Saw Play
Started following the Skins in 1979 (age 10)
Joe Theismann Charlie Brown John Riggins Dave Butz (and his scratched up helmet) Clinton Portis (who helped me win my first Fantasy Football Championship in 2005) Mark Rypien Earnest Byner Stephen Davis Darrell Green Art Monk OK one quick story..Went with the family to see the Skins in St. Louis when the Cardinals played there for a December game in 1986 I think. Stayed in the same hotel as the Skins. Watched them arrive and come into the hotel that afternoon as a 16-17 year old kid. I thought they were all enormous. Went downstairs that night to play video games in the game room, and Darrell Green and Art Monk both came up one on either side of me and watched me play Mrs. Pacman or something for about a minute or two! Great thrill as a teen age kid to look back now and think that these tow Hall of Famers were watching me play a video game the night before their game. Oh they won the next day...it was freezing! |

Re: 10 Greatest Redskins You Saw Play
He was awesome in '99. If we only had a defense to go along with that team that year, we could have gone a long way.
