Mitchell was a good player. Not great but good. One of the reasons he piled up all those return yards was during 93- 98 those teams sucked and were always getting scored on. He many opportunities to have returns. I viewed him as good return man. But to be honest he was always running his mouth, everytime he got tackled he got up and wanted to get in a fight w/ someone. It's football, not boxing.....that kind of turned me off to him. Let your play do the talking. Play football and shut up and it's carried over to his commentating. But it's a nice gesture on Snyder's part, he was a good player, I'm just not sure he should go up there w/ Riggins, Monk, Green, Dexter, Sonny, Clark and so on. Those guys were GREAT Redskins, not sure I'd put B.Mitch in that category.
