Leader In Sports Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 As many of you may know, we have hosted autograph signings in Fredericksburg, VA for MANY years. On July 22nd we have an event that I would not normally post on here, except for this week's addition to the event. Duane Thomas who played for the Redskins in 1973 & 74 and is even on a Sports Illustrated cover as a Skin will be doing his first ever autograph appearance in this area.  A few years back we did an event with Eddie LeBaron after he hadn't been here in years. It was a fun event with just as many people wearing Maroon and Gold as Blue and Silver. We hope the Redskins fans make it to Spotsylvania Towne Centre to once again represent. The Facebook event is linked below. We will have Redskins 8x10s and mini helmets available for purchase at the event:  Facebook Event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB452 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 He was Larry Brown's backup for a couple of seasons. Allen gave up a #1 and #2 pick for him to San Diego.  >> Lots of interesting stuff on his Wiki page including this about SuperBowl VI (which I did not know): Thomas was reportedly voted as the Super Bowl Most Valuable Player by an overwhelming margin. Thomas, however, had boycotted the media throughout the season as well, and Larry Klein, editor of Sport, which presented the award, didn't know how Thomas would act at a banquet in New York. With this in mind Klein announced quarterback Roger Staubach as the winner.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
