My dad was a big Skins fan, so I was. But during the mid-70's when I was like 5-6 years old, we were living in Germany, and for a short time I decided I liked the, eh-ehm, Cowboys because of the stupid star on the helmet, and they were always doing well (Hey, I was just a kid!). But it didn't take long for him to convince me that they were the enemy though!
After that, I always liked the Skins and considered them "my team", but wasn't big into them (or the NFL for that matter) until the first superbowl year. Then I was a true Redskins fan, and have been ever since. Actually over the past few years (since the late 90's), I've become more and more die-hard than ever....
