punishmentcrew Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I went to the Redskins Giants game last Sat. Man was that the best Christmas gift ever. It is nice to go to a game and come out on top! But after the game I went to the 5th quarter celebration and let the traffic die out. When we did leave, in the player parking lot Ray Brown was there in the cold signing autographs. People were throwing Jerseys and what not over the fence and he would catch them, sign them and toss them back over! I talked to him for a quick second. What an awesome guy. Here he is 43 yrs old playing a full game at O Line. Doesn't look a day older then 28. Also at the same time his wife and kids were sitting in their SUV not complaining about him taking the time to interact with fans. Kudos Ray Brown! You are a great player, and a great man! Happy Holidays everyone. Now lets go beat those Eagles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Good for you on the Christmas gift. And it just doesn't surprise me that Ray's a good guy. Could be an age thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgiaredskin Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Wow, what a guy. I didn't end up posting on the Ray Brown Appreciation thread, but Ray, you're a hero. And your family is great, too. Hail to you! :helmet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonnyRules Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 That's really cool. We meet Dexter Mannely on Saturday. He was gracious enough to autograph our game tickets. Just hope he is healthy and clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altair4 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Ray Brown is a class act, The epitome of "character" that Joe Gibbs stresses as a fundamental ingredient of team success. I want to thank Ray for his outstanding contributions to the team both on the field and in the locker room, and if he ever starts selling a "fountain of youth" elixer, I'm buying...

OVCChairman Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Gotta love the respect, not letting the money get to his head. He's had a good career and you know what, he just faced one of the best d-lines in the league and he's goin strong!!! by the way, he's 43, how old were his kids?!
