THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP! I would've missed it.

please cpayne, show us loser non-NFL network hobos DVR/divx love.

OK, I've set up the DVR to record everything -- does the NFL Total Access show also concentrate on the Skins?

I'm sure many of you have seen it, but the "Lost Treasures" thing about George Allen is the best Redskins Film they've made, IMO. It's one of their best period. I believe it's called "Three Cheers for the Redskins" and features a lot of outtakes from Allen's first training camp as well as current interviews with people like Diron Talbert, Roy Jefferson, and Speedy Duncan, among many others.
Watch Roy Jefferson panic when he gets stung by a bee in the RFK locker room.

Yea its pretty great. Instant classic. Notice the sign on the practice facility that reads 'the redskins' (also has the indian head logo) you can see the same sign anytime at fedex field on the outside of the stadium near the ticket windows.

I was watching the 'Game of the Week' from 2003 and let's talk about how far we've come.. Some of the names playing KEY roles in that game:
Trung Candidate
Lennie Friedman
Darrell Russell (RIP)
Patrick Johnson
Peppi Zellner
David Terrell
Ifayeni Ohalete
John Simon (was the 2nd string HB that day)
Bruce Smith
Regan Upshaw

Hue Jackson called the plays, George Edwards was the defensive coordinator..

It's so much better to be a Redskins fan now!

[Warpath]

Good Friday? no, I proclaim it GREAT FRIDAY!

Read "Fifth Quarter" by Jennifer Allen, George's daughter. She talks about what life was like growing up in the George Allen household. Interesting insights......days with the Rams and Skins and Allen's relationship with Jack Kent Cooke........

Jennifer does some interviews from time to time on the NFL Network also.

How many of us are going to watch Hail to the Redskins on the NFL network at 8 (ET)? It's an NFL films presents, but because it's primetime, I think it's brand new.

i basically watched nfl network since noon. I really enjoyed it, and i learned some things about the redskins old days. I learned about 70 chip and the john riggins play in the superbowl against miami. It was pretty great. I wish we had that kind of offensive firepower that we had then.

I have to say I side with Peppi on this one, I was never a big B. Smith fan especially at the end. It's so obvious he was just after the record, more power to him, but he just came off selfish to me.
