Hitman#21 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 So i decided why not write a letter to the defensive player who i admire the most on the Skins. i sent my favorite picture of Reed and to my suprise i get a letter back from him in 5 days with the Picture signed. This man is a class act, heres a pic of the signature and i just started the thread to show my appreciation to Reed and to find out if any of you had luck from getting any mail or stuff signed from a Redskins Player or coach?

Lar0n Landry Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 That's cool I guess. Just curious...Why do you admire him the most out of all our defensive players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitman#21 Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 That's cool I guess. Just curious...Why do you admire him the most out of all our defensive players? Good question, i love Landry Jason T, Marcus, arter, Smoot and Fletch, and of course #21 but, ever since Reed has steped on the field hes played with this intesity and seems to have a love for the game which i trully admire. Hopes that helps answer the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Tomb Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Good question, i love Landry Jason T, Marcus, arter, Smoot and Fletch, and of course #21 but, ever since Reed has steped on the field hes played with this intesity and seems to have a love for the game which i trully admire. Hopes that helps answer the question. I hate to say it, but if Reed Doughty was on that field instead of Chris Horton on Sunday, we probably would have lost the game. While I think Doughty makes for an awesome and inspiring story, I don't think he has the tools necessary to make a great strong safety. He doesn't seem to have a "nose for the ball" like Horton. My two cents, Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEREALTOR1 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 HH is going to be sending everything he owns now <OLS> <OLS> I was wondering if the OP was just HH posting under a different name. But you're probably right, I gotta feeling Reed's gonna be getting some weird **** in the mail soon from the President/Founder/CEO of the "RD Fan Club"!

kevinklein Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Cool to hear back from him. I'm going to write him and ask him if he can deliver a letter to Chris Horton for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsaneBoost Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 y wont it let me see the pix? You are probably NNT like I am, in that cause it doesn't allow you to see attachments, I've told staff about this before, but I guess they don't know how to correct it.

BigRedskinDaddy Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Congrats, OP. Reed does seem like a very classy guy. It's been said in about 1,000 articles regarding Horton's first start that Reed went out of his way to send him a text message to warn him about his playing. He made sure to tell the rookie he was confident that he could handle it. That's not just class, it's also called leadership. Who knows how much that little thing might have calmed the kid down, and helped him get the pre-game jitters out of his system that much faster? Just out of curiosity, how did you know where to send the letter/pic? Did you just address it to Redskins Park ICO Reed Doughty, or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kleese Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Wanted to write to a Redskins player once when I was a kid.....any player, just to see if they'd write back. I chose Raleigh McKenzie because I figured his fan mail wasn't overflowing Sure enough, he wrote back and said he loved playing for the Redskins, that they were an A-1 class organization. It was a very nice little note. It made my day, and it's one of the few things from my childhood that I've held onto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMeast Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I like ol'Reed. He was put in a tough spot last year taking over for a guy like Sean Taylor. I think, minus the Dallas away game, he did a pretty good job. HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teller Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 HH is going to hunt you down and force you to submit that picture with repeated RHKs to the face!! Actually, my girl skinslove hooked me up. She got Reed's auto for me at Late Night last week. Good stuffs there, Hitman. And thanks BRD for pointing out the text message Doughty sent Horton. IMO, he was passing on what he got from Sean Taylor. Just that little "Hey kid, I believe in you," can work wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn i wish i could do that but i wouldnt even kno whom to address the letter. Congrats on that; it shows alot of class on Reed's behalf (either that or he felt jus as honored as u did cuz he knows he's not the most "popular" redskin). Two seasons ago, i got my hat autogaphed by Chris Cooley and my football autogarphed by Joe Gibbs.
