Who is your all-time favorite Redskin?

I'm gonna go with Art Monk. The classiest person I ever saw play the game in addition to having the most "pure" set of hands in NFL history. Growing up in Loudoun County, VA I got to meet him many times and he would always give you such a warm and humble smile along with some kind words. HOF??? Just because he is not a self promoter?

My second favorite Redskin is anyone wearing that beautiful jersey!

[QUOTE=XXVI;401787]Darrell Green is a punk ass bitch. I love nostalgia, but he doesn't deserve all the praise he gets.

I knew Green a little growing up and he is a very private person. He made a choice in his career that he wanted a seperate life off the field. He's actually a very nice guy who would help anyone. I was there when one of my friends asked him for an autograph and he said the same thing, "I'm sorry, I don't do autograph's". Instead he gave us a couple of tips on coverage and told us he looked forward to seeing us play. Don't get down on a guy who made a choice for his family, every man has the right to deal with fame their own way.

Kurt Gouveia was an awesome player!!! He would also come give clinics and help out at my practices in high school.

remember how Dave Butz use to have his kid carry his helmet off the field? that was cool.

Awesome memory, I remember that very well. It was the '88 Super Bowl I last recall he and his son were on the sidelines. In fact, I believe it was John Madden that kept referring to Butz' helmet when they had a camera on him during the game and Madden said that it looked like a "used car" it was so scratched up! Great player Butz was.

Mine is probably John Riggins. Glad we don't have to play him tomorrow!!!

Riggins is mine as well. It was pretty cool to see him during the broadcast of the VT vs. Kansas game in the Orange Bowl the other night. One of our boys said "Dad, are you sure that's him? He looks so old!" Oh well, if we lived the life he has we'd all look old I guess! :) I've heard some say he is a jerk in real life, and he has certainly had his adventures made public courtesy of the media, but as a player, none were more exciting than The Diesel.

Now...Beat the 'Hawks Redskins!!!

Anyway, politely declining to do walk-up autographs isn't such a bad thing, as long as the guy's not a dick about it. People in general have a hard time understanding that celebrities and pro athletes have a right to their privacy and don't really want to be accosted 24/7. I for one don't think they should be forced to live in compounds and hide from the public.

Isn't this a repeat of an older thread:

Yeah, but a Seagull fan asked. Visiting team posters rarely use search functions to be courteous forumgoers :)

Well... shoot... I believe that deserves a negative... actually, a double negative as a Seagirl fan.

Not exactly. Coolest you met doesn't exactly equal favorite. See my example here:
