Sad to hear. But I will say, the article had one thing that leapt off the page to me: "Pardee's firing came 15 days after the Redskins finished the season with a 6-10 record, the team's worst in 17 years. Pardee was 24-24 in three years as the Redskin head coach."

6-10 was the worst in 17 years (in 1981). Whoa. I have been a fan since about 1974, and I have always been nostalgic about my early years as a fan. And now I recall why.
