The dude is your typical fanboy that has big $$ and lucky enough to own a team... He's a loser , I don't care how much money he has

True dat.

I must say, Snyder fascinates me. I perpetually wonder how long it will take him to fully ascend the learning curve. He shows signs of "getting it" but then regresses back to his obstinate self.

That he is not a nice person goes without saying. But there is more to it than that. Honestly, and this is only my theory, I think winning is secondary to him. Oh sure, he would love to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

But first and foremost is the intoxication he experiences by making big splashes and headlines. I think that is what turns him on. I would not doubt he is in heaven right now with all the attention the org is getting.

No it wasn't. If Floyd was pulled over by good cops we wouldn't even be here. There wouldn't have been a mob.

Not a fan of all gold, but like the idea. Although, I would have the tips of the wings in burgundy on the logo. Love that R (that I mentioned in the other post).

The team already said they're not wearing head-to-toe gold when Nike tried to make them wear those trash color rush uniforms.

I think that was a Bruce Allen thing

One of his few moves I agreed with!

I actually loved that he brought back the gold pants.

I like these looks best:

The owner also said he was never changing the name. The league said no team could br forced to be featured on Hard Knocks. Point is, Nike is paying the league a lot of money. If they want the Skins in all gold and make enough of a stink, they will win out in the end. Same if they want the Giants in all Blue like a collection of Smurfs.

So the end is official and coming within the hours, I want this thread to be positive.

Name your favorite Redskins of all time
Favorite moments / games / eras.

I also want to say thank you Matty and everyone here for keeping me sane through the years, in a sense I grew up a lot with the Warpath.. I'm not sure if the site name will change but if it does I SALUTE this page!!

And for one final time (can't believe I'm writing this)

HAIL TO THE REDSKINS

Aside from the guys who played for Both the Skins and Giants (Pierce, Armstead, Leonard Marshall) it is without a doubt, Jim Lachey. Met him at football camp in the Summer of 91. Just a really nice guy. Me and another camper happened to cross paths with him after lunch. He walked and talked with us for a good 1/2 hour. Asked him about working out (I was 15, summer before 10th grade) hadn't REALLY started lifting yet. Was the first time I heard, "Arms are for show, legs are for dough." We talked about different guys in the NFL. Said the key to LT was to get a body on him and wear him down. Other kid I was with asked him about Reggie White and he said White is on other side, he dealt with Clyde Simmons.

Do not like the all gold at all!!!! I do hope they keep the same colors, burgundy and gold with the emphasis on burgundy.

Not to mention the lexicon of an average 9th grader. For some reason I enjoy Thom though.
