CPstretch Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 when is DC going to get an AFL team...it would keep me occupied in the skins offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 man, seemed like we would keep Bernard Holsey after he played alright for us the 2nd Spurrier year. THought he was good depth. I remember liking Justin Skaggs, too bad he couldnt make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest santana4prez Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I thought Woddy Dantzler was a steal when the Boys drafted him. I thought he was gonna be a WR/KR but he busted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinsSuperBowl21 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 if the the skins had a AFL team, i would want it to be the Sentinels from the move "the replacements"....that would be great if the uniforms and everything was identical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skins84 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Rufus Brown, that's my man from FSU! And it's good to see Michael Bishop still playin, he was at beast at Kansas State. And Joe Hamilton from GT plays Qb for the Orlando team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimster Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 if the the skins had a AFL team, i would want it to be the Sentinels from the move "the replacements"....that would be great if the uniforms and everything was identical I believe I remember hearing that Snyder owns the rights to the name Washington Warriors, so it could happen someday. - I'd watch if we had a home team. ...what's weird is the National Conference Eastern division includes NY, Philly and Dallas. - They're just begging for Washington to join.

CM916 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Yea, if DC got an AFL team that was as blatantly a copy of the Skins as the Dallas Desperadoes are of the cowgirls, right down to the star logo, I could stop following Tampa. Offseason boredom and the fact that Im stuck in the Tampa area much of the year means all I can watch is the Storm. I even gave the AFL $6 to let me watch the last home game on my computer since they refused to put it on local tv. Too bad Gramatica couldnt make any extra points and they gave up an eight point lead right at the end, wasted my damn money as cool as it was to watch an entire game live on my comp. (although it was only 85% or so reliable, it showed all the halftime crap then cut off to download right at the 2nd half kickoff, missed a whole drive) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 No Trung Canidate? :laugh: His speed should be a good fit in the dome game. I probably have to go to a Storm game since I'm so bored. A friend of mine went to game last week and said it was so much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine went to game last week and said it was so much fun. Man that guy was such a bad pick up. Did Spurrier really push us to get rid of Stephen Davis to pick up THAT guy??? :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine went to game last week and said it was so much fun. most of those guys play both ways, except the QB and kicker. So if you can't tackle or cover a receiver, I guess you're not going to make a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carter23 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 i remember when rufus brown came here for a chat before the season... i'm not 100% sure if it was him exactly, but still really cool nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOLhandsCOOLEY Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 i remember when rufus brown came here for a chat before the season... i'm not 100% sure if it was him exactly, but still really cool nonetheless I remember that too. That was really cool and he seemed so genuine in his sentiments about the skins. If it was him he sounded like one solid dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakazullo Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 James Cannida was actually an ex Redskin during Spurrier's time. He was signed in training camp and was cut a week or two later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
