That sounds like something he would do. Man, they just don't have athletes like these guys anymore. Let me tell you a story. I was talking to Reggie Branch at the party -- it's SOOOOO cool to say that! He told me that he LOVED his teammates because they were all about the team instead of "getting theirs" like a lot of today's athletes. Indeed, you always felt connected to them because they WERE part of the community and they never thought twice about signing an autograph when asked, both Friday night and back during their playing days. That's what made the glory years that much more special. It wasn't just about the Redskins winning, but how those players went out of their way to include the fans. I'm proud to have lived through that and I'll NEVER forget that night!
