MikeSellers45 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 My brother has met Chris Hanburger before, sometimes he goes down to the dealership my brother works out. I really wish I could have been around to see all these great players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighwayPatrolLT Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 Here is the reason why in the NFC in the 1970's you did not bother to run at the Redskins defensive right side..... the reason is # 55 ;o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ax Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A57037-2005Apr15.html Leonard Shapiro: Chris Hanburger was a fine player, a guy who slipped through the cracks for a lot of years because he played on a lot of bad redskins teams. I could support his candidacy as a senior, just as I believe pat fischer should be in, as well. One thing going against hanburger: he was extremely media unfriendly, and some people have long memories. Seems to be a pattern, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just skins baby Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Quick question, was Hanburger the last Redskin to wear number 55? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWareofDWare94 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 He was a great guy in person too, he lived in my neighborhood growing up (if that tells ya how little they made back than) I must of been 11 years old, I remember going over his house asking for a autograph. obviously scared to death, he had this tough, serious look on his face. He didn't turn me and my friends down. I remember seeing him at Safeway all the time he was pretty big guy for NFL linebacker back in the mid 70's. Think he owned a couple car dealerships, I remember my dad always runnning into alot of retired skins at the dealerships. I grew up in that neighborhood as well and was very good friends with his son. Chris Hanbuger is a very nice person, and a great role model for all as to how he approached the game.

Ax Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Quick question, was Hanburger the last Redskin to wear number 55? No, although he is the best Redskin to wear it. Mel Kaufman comes to mind as one who wore the number and did it proud. I believe the french guy, Phillipe Gardent (sp) had it last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
