Redskins: Memory Makers for Me

Great pics and stories, thanks for sharing. They sure do grow up fast, huh?

I've got a two year old I plan to raise a skins fan too even though I'm in Florida. I think as skins parents, it's our duty!!!

Great pics, SBF! My wife appreciates the complement, as well.

We had a blast getting to meet you guys at the draft day party, and hanging out for a while. Looking forward to more Warpath get-togethers in the future. I'd like to get up to your Skins-'Boys party, but I'll probably need to take the next day off, if you know what I mean!

:cool-smil

Not sure if the wife would like that too much!

Hopefully, we can all get together at training camp.

Great stuff, Sammy-fan.

I had one of those skins winter caps with the pompom, too. They should bring those back. And man, do I miss RFK. That place used to SHAKE!

My two year old is now singing "Hail To The Redskins" and calls it Daddy's favorite song. My wife is due to have another boy on Monday ( :thumb: ), and I'm sure I'll ruin him too.

By the way, SBF, do you think five years old is about right for taking your son to a game? I want to take Jack (probably to a preseason game, for weather and stress reasons

), but I'd hate to get there and turn around as soon as we get in the stadium.

Hey Brud -

take your two your old son to a game this year if you can. We took my two year old daughter to see the Tampa Bay Lightening on their playoff run to win the Stanley Cup last month and she loved it. She would yell and clap when the crowd got loud, it was hilarious. I was worried about the crowd noise getting to her too, but like I said, she had a great time for all 3 hours! We've got tickets to go see the Devil Rays v. Red Sox baseball in early August and we're gonna take a weekend trip to see our beloved Skins v. Dolphins in late August in Miami.

It's funny because at that age they seem to follow whatever mom and dad do. For example, if my wife and I are watching tv and we start laughing about something, our daughter will bust out laughing too, she doesn't know why, she just follows us. So if you've got your son singing "hail the the Redskins" already, your ahead of the game! He'll have a good time at a game now!
