OMG......how good was Joe Washington.

 

[chillerdab]

In no particular order:

Riggo - for telling sandra day o’connor to “loosen up, Sandy baby!”

Manley - for “I didnt spit on him. I sneezed.”

Monk - for being awesome

Clark - for his celebrations, and the vikings win

Portis - for his characters, and for the way he blew up linebackers who rushed the passer

Darrell Green - for being awesome. And for the “and my daughter Jerrell” commercials.

Alvin Walton - for the mohawk

London Fletcher - for being a tiny dominant middle linebacker

Cooooooooley- for being Chris Cooley

Clint Didier / Neil Olkewicz - because I met both during my formative years, and they were awesome to me and my brother.

Joe Jacoby - for being gigantic and for cradling his son in his massive hands after winning some
playoff game

Honorable Mention:

Ryan Kerrigan - quiet, lunchpail dignity
Ernest Byner / Gerald Riggs combo
Doug Williams - for escaping a horrific situation in tampa bay and gutting out a huge huge super bowl win late in his career

OMG......how good was Joe Washington.

That monday night game as a Colt will never be forgotten, nor will this punt return while at Oklahoma

1. Darrell Green - Fastest man in NFL for years. Chased down Dorsett like a biotch! Game changer!
2. Sonny Jurgensen - Old red could sling it.
3. Sean Taylor - I can only imagine him having a HOF career with one team.
3. Art Monk - At one time a record setting holder for catches and true consumate pro.
4. Charlie Taylor - Cannot mention the above without mentioning this Redskin all time great.
5. John Riggins - Clearly controlled the ground game after coming out of retirement to run the Skins to back to back SB. (I'll make you famous, he told Gibbs)
6. Joe Theismann - What can you say about Lil Joe. Professional, leader, tough, won a shit ton of games and had a calming influence on the team.
7. Dave Butz - While not a Redskin for as long as others, this guy controlled the middle and made things a long day each game day opponent.
8. Dexter Manley & Charles Mann - Mentioned together because they thrived together.
9. Russ Grimm - An all time great at guard and one of the best to ever do it. (Jacoby, Grimm, Bostic, May, Starke) They all deserve mention.
10. Gary Clark - Graduated from Pulaski HS south of me. WR you could always count on and a posse great.

Honorable Mention: (in no order)
1. Ryan Kerrigan
2. Joe Washington
3. Pat Fischer
4. Bobby Bethard
5. Joe Bugel
6. Joe Gibbs
7. Jack Kent Cooke

Once again showing may age by spelling Taylor's first mane wrong. My dad used to tell me how good he was. He stood with me by the ropes at Carlisle for 30 minutes after Taylor promised me an autograph after his interview.

When he was finished he walked straight to the locker room and acted like he didn't see us. My dad never looked at him the same after that.

In contrast, Gibbs doubled back to give me an autograph after he spent a good 15 minutes signing stuff.

I did Pre K and Kindergarten at Carlisle. Pops was staitioned at the War College.

I just remember 25 was a beast and the perfect change of pace for Riggo.

Classic thunder & lighting duo.

Riggo a Kansas State 100 champ 9.8, obviously lighter.

Dave Butz! Theismann a was a diva but in 83 he was unstoppable.

Riggo falling out of his chair drunk in front of Reagan is just hilarious and awesome on all levels. Lol. Don't forget about Ervins.

Slingin' Sammy has to get some props, he was the first real legit QB. And believe it or not he could punt in 2021, dead serious!

 

[skinz2winz]

Dave Butz! Theismann a was a diva but in 83 he was unstoppable.

Many people are amiss about our best field general in Joey T. League MVP and multiple pro bowler during the days of some really great QB's. This 6'0 190 lb QB played like a true giant!

How in the hell did I forget Larry Brown, EL DUHO!!!! good bye Gary.

 

[kbso83432]

Trent lost me when he said he couldn't find a helmet that fit.

Trent lost me when he said he couldn't find a helmet that fit.

Had to put a sooner in there. Him or Lil Joe Washington. If Adrian Peterson was here longer maybe.....wait Malcolm Kelly

 

[Skin'EmAll]

My list is pretty much the same as all, I'd throw Steven Davis in there probably at 10.
I was also awesome seeing Sammy Baugh play too
