The Skins went on to win that game and then of course the Superbowl and I was hooked. I have been to FedEx twice to see them play and my first ever visit I got to go on the field and had my picture taken by the goal post. I also drove to Seattle a few years back to catch them playing there. This year I am heading to Atlanta for their game there.

Hail to the Redskins, Hail Victory.

That Bears-Redskins playoff game was the one where Darrell Green returned a punt for a TD despite pulling a muscle. What a stud.
