[SCRedskinsFan]

Redskins fan since I was stationed at Ft. Belvoir in the Army in 1966. So I've been through it all -- the worst of times, best of times, and the worst of times again. Interesting reading all the stories of the regulars in this thread.

Came from Germany in 1961 after growing up with soccer, soccer, soccer. Played, refereed, coached the kids through their school years after moving to DC from NY permanently (NoVA) in 1976. But no question, football and my Redskins are No. 1. Lived in NY for nine years and never even came close to rooting for the Giants or the Jets, even in their glory year. Does anyone remember Riggins as a Jet?

Moved to South Carolina (Pawleys Island, 30 min south of Myrtle) 8 years ago and, if that's even possible, became an even more passionate fan down here. Remember, the South was solid Redskins country before the Panther, Falcons, Saints and all those Florida teams. So the older generation remains solid Redskins, stickers and flags on trucks and Skins gear of all kinds.

We do run into Coach Gibbs quite often around town. He owns a place nearby and spends family time at the beach and on the golf course. FIunny story, the bag drop guys at the local courses don't like coach so much...for a tip he presses a small Bible into their hand with a "God Bless" instead of that 5 spot they're expecting.

One more thing: Thanks to the Warpath for helping all of us keep in touch with each other and the Redskins. Great site, good discussion, and a literate membership (well, there are exceptions). I don't post much, but I'm with you every day. Thanks. HTTR
