I also believe my kids played more of a role in winning than did some welcome to Dallas sign but thats just my opinion. In closing to be honest with you I thought your pic was gonna get drafted first overall and like you, was shocked it didn't make it in the top 5. Perhaps when I attend my first home game I can buy you and Betsy Ross a beer. You guys ran one hell of a campaign. HTTR!
Lol, Welcome to the board, I wasn't expecting you to show up : ) Congratulations too as I've mentioned before.

I prefaced my statement by saying it was sour grapes on my part so please don't take offense. I recognize completely that I was bested.

I did come away with though with the assumption that the location of the picture was Dallas, Texas. Any person who sees that picture is walking away with that same impression.

When I found it was in Dallas, Oregon the picture lost some luster because the brazen fan aspect was taken away. Obviously your kids fervent Redskins fandom is enough on its own. It's great too that they'll have such a great Redskins memory by taking the trip to Training Camp and doing all the Skins related stuff.

Congratulations again, and I'll take you up on that beer offer because I need to drown my sorrows and my sour grapes : )

Well done, I'm available through uncleskinswantsyou@gmail.com when you get into town. Wish you well, Scott, welcome to The Warpath.

Thanks Monkeydad...I'll try not to take my talents to South Beach : )
