nice...that made my day...had no idea....hail skins!!!!!!!!

Oh glory days, how we long to see you again.

Ah, I remember it like it was yesterday.
Just kidding, I wasn't even 3 months old and I was probably asleep the entire time but I've seen the clip of Riggo so many times that I really do feel like I saw it live.
How many other teams are lucky enough to have such an iconic moment?

Don't feel bad. I hadn't even been conceived. ;)

I do remember it like it was yesterday. My Dad was at the game!!! (Company trip prize) I was home watching it on TV. I was 11 and all I remember was being so nervous! I jumped up and down when Riggins ran over that Dolphin and started to build up speed for the endzone. He was faster than he looked in those days!!!

Awesome pic! Hope that Mooch can bring Portis and Co. to the promiseland one more time baby!

LOL

When this game took place, I was four. When Riggins broke it loose on 4th and one, my dad jumped out of his chair, screaming YEAAAHHHH! at the absolute top of his lungs. He couldn't stop jumping up and down. It was so loud that it scared the crap out of me (I think I was probably playing with toys at the time) and I started crying. Then I realized he was freaking out because of happiness, and I joined in. I think that moment, while scary as all get out, was the moment I became interested in the Skins.

I guess you could say I've been a Redskin fan for 25 years today. Awesome.

Little do people remember it was 4th and 1. If Don McNeal makes that tackle things most certainly would of turned out different. Either way 70 Chip worked and Riggo powered that diesel about 40 yards to the endzone!

Don't forget Theismann's tip in the end zone. Huge play!

And not to be a downer, but it's really tragic what became of David Woodley.
