Like I said last year after we grabbed him, he took less money from us over offers from the Giants & Patriots, because he was a life-long Redskins fan.

I'm in Chesapeake, VA (D-Hall's hometown) & my teacher-assistant's son is acquaintances with "Dee-Dee" (I think that's what she calls him)... she told me last year how ecstatic he was after we signed him because he had always wanted to be a Redskin & be closer to home.

We really are fortunate that he WANTS to be here, so we really have a great chance at getting him completely turned around. Add in the fact that he is older now & maturing up and we could really see something special come out of all of this.

I'd LOVE to see Darrell Green pop up sometime at Redskin Park ... he'd be a phenomenal influence/mentor for him, as he grew up such a huge fan of his.
