And so hopefully you will have learned and when you have grandsons,you need to take them to Rams training camp lijke I did my grandson last summer where he was given the job of autograph assistant to Robert Quinn and Gerald Rivers, Rivers gave him his practice gloves ,Chris Long Quinn and Rivers autographed them.
Love these stories. Keep 'em coming guys. Maybe a new thread?

Unfortunately it's 9 hours to drive to St. Louis from here. Had I known what the consequences would be....;)

How the trade has worked out so far using Pro Football Reference's approximate value.

The fucking redskins make me sick. I'll never forget that playoff beat-down they gave us. Fuck them.

I do have a slight soft spot for the redskins however... My Grandfather was a skins fan, and I used to date a redskin cheerleader (Somehow, that story never gets old for me}

So by that chart, Brockers and Stacy alone would have been worth it.... and Ogletree is going to get better.

True story - when my son was little, he's 23 now, he was attending a day care center at Frostburg University. This was the only year that the Skins had their preseason at that facility. One day I went to pick him up and the teacher told me he was out on the field with the team. When I first saw him he was being carried around by one of the players, maybe Darrell Green, I can't remember for sure. The players had put together little notebooks for the children filled with their autographs. My son still has it today. After that day I lost him to the Skins.
Darrel Green was a player! He put a wammy on your boy!

And... We still have a #2 overall pick to cash in... Either by selection or trade!

Thank you Washington!

I remember being irritated at Green for constantly beating Ron Brown in those NFL's Fastest Man competitions they used to do.

Odd. Wonder who it was. Your area code but no message. I know a few people over there but...?


The wife and I watched the last episode of Breaking Bad tonight. Somehow we never watched that show when it was actually on TV. What a great series that is. We are going to have a hard time finding anything that entertaining to watch now... we've been watching that whole series for the last several weeks.

Absolutely loved that show. Have been searching for something else to take it's place. Just finished season 3 of 'Lost.' It's okay but it's no Jesse and Walter. Sorry for the momentary threadjack.
