Moss, the Washington Redskins' Pro Bowl receiver, is used to waiting his turn while waiting for an offense to take shape. He did it in high school, at the University of Miami and with the New York Jets. "I've been patient since Day One," he said. "It started when my mom wouldn't let me play football until I was 12 years old. That appreciation has carried over. I've been through so many things that now, when something happens, I can say, 'I've seen this before.' "I think back to those years and I try to take every opportunity I can get because the chances don't come too often. Last year, I had plenty of chances. This year, guys like Antwaan Randle El, Brandon Lloyd and Chris Cooley -- I don't know when I'll get the ball again." :point: hesscl34 10-04-2006, 02:24 PM The guy is great football player. On and off of the field. I love that he's a Redskin! RedskinRat 10-04-2006, 02:26 PM I boldly predict he'll wear three SB rings for the Redskins. Yeah, I said it. hesscl34 10-04-2006, 02:29 PM I boldly predict he'll wear three SB rings for the Redskins. Yeah, I said it. 3???? WOW!!! I LOVE THE POSTIVE THINKING!!!!!! I've only been confident about 1 ring. 12thMan 10-04-2006, 02:31 PM One sounds good to me...three, wow! That would go beyond the Gibbs era. RobH4413 10-04-2006, 02:38 PM We need to lap Cowboys in SB rings. That just leaves a bad taste in my mouth everyday. RedskinRat 10-04-2006, 02:46 PM I see this team being one of the old school 'Dynasty' types. They have the character. They have the coaches. They have the players. THEY HAVE THE FANSBASE! hesscl34 10-04-2006, 02:48 PM I see this team being one of the old school 'Dynasty' types. They have the character. They have the coaches. They have the players. THEY HAVE THE FANSBASE! But with free angency do you really think they'll all hold together that long?? For 3 SBs?? That's what I worry about. The guys getting full of themselves and wanting the big bucks and moving on..... RedskinRat 10-04-2006, 02:51 PM Yes, because they're Gibbs guys. dmek25 10-04-2006, 02:53 PM i dont remember moss making these kinds of plays while he was at the U. was he this kind of playmaker in college?
