Help settle an argument...

if you see my custom mcfarlane thread, just posted about meeting Leonard Marshall and him signing stuff for me to sell. A friend of mine thought I should have also brought a few redskins and jets mini-helmets, since he played for those teams, as well. I thought it was dumb as I don't think Redskins fans would have any interest in a signed skins mini-helmet from him as you consider him a Giants despite the year he played in DC. Same for Jets. I understand there are some hard core collectors who will buy anything with their team name/logo/colors on it, but figured they would most likely already have such an item if they were interested in such a thing.

What?

Coggs I saw all your stuff that you had signed. I had forgotten that he had played here a year in Washington. It would probably be a kin to having a Lavar Arrington Giants helmet or a B-Mitch mini helmet signed. Most Giants fans do not really consider those guys Giants. I really only think of Marshall as a Giant. He was on probably one of the greatest and most underrated defenses of all time.

Yeah, you win the argument. I would have zero interest in anything signed by Leonard Marshall. I had forgotten he ever played for a Redskins.

I think you're probably right Coggs.

Speak for yourself, that defense was ALL-TIME, and yes I hated them!!!

im not talking about me. ive been a skins fan since 1970. but there seems to be a lot of youngsters here

I barely remembered Marshall being on the Skins until this thread. Coggs = win.

coggs · 09-23-2009, 12:47 PM

That's what I figured. It would be one thing if they won a super bowl in his one year or he did something really significant like break the sack record, but other than that probably not. Maybe a picture of him in the skins uniform, but even that would be a stretch. Someone like Wilber Marshall would likely be popular amongst both Bears and Skins fans. Someone like Matt Millen or Charles Haley with the different teams they played for.

exactly, guy I actually thought of was Larry Czonka. Hall of famer with Miami and came to an awful Giants team in the late 70's.

Marshall = Giants in my mind too.
