pez Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 This is to the board operator/admin - I was wondering If we could add a board within "HOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE Forums" That would be exclusively for posts concerning Redskins (current and alumni) appearances. Basically Each new thread would have a date and name of the player(s) and the bosy would contain things like location, time, etc. Here is an example (which we can add by the way!) Subject: 03-28-2004: Dexter Manley Body: Redskin fans...Here is your opportunity to meet one of the greatest 'Skins to ever play the game. Two time Super Bowl Champion and Washington Redskins All-Time Sack King, Dexter Manley. This will be only Dexter's second public appearance ever since being banned from the NFL in 1991. One of the NFL's most feared pass rushers in history and certainly one of the most troubled, interesting, and talented players of our time. In person at the Triumph Sports NFL Spectacular Show on Sunday March 28th, 2004 from 1pm-3pm in Edison, NJ you can meet this NFL legend in person. For tickets please call 1-866-662-3786. Can we do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 actually bufford I have always wanted a resource like this - how in the world are you supposed to track down where these guys are without some community help... Redskins.com never has ANY content in their calendar/schedule and come on this warrants a new thread, does it not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinsNation Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 The Greatest Dexter moment - Redskins/Vikings 86' a shoot out - but Manley managed to pick up a high snap over Tommy Kramer's head and proceed to the house. My favorite Dexter moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 You should email Redskins.com and let them know they are doing a crappy job with the site. It should be about 100X cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 They probably have contracted some freakin kid to do it. Lots of graphics, sections, etc - almost no actual content. IMO redskins.com should be a portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 actually I have emailed (through their form-driven-mail) a number of suggestions INCLUDING a forum.... never got contacted back. Although that is not much to say, because everyone I have talked to has never gotten a response from their emails either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sippin2020 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 webpez, it doesn't look like you need a new forum You already know where these guys are going to be. Just keep your own thread going and update us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 Yeah - but I think it needs to be organized, one thread per appearance, because of course there are going to be replies/questions/etc and they should all be centralized. Another thing, I only know these couple few, other people may know of appearances thatI do not - and we need to take into consideration those people that do NOT live in the mid-atlantic and appearances near them. This would be a great thing if we can get everyone to contribute!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 should we also include non-redskins players? I know a couple particularly Terry Bradshaw and Joe Montana that I wouldn't mind meeting/getting autgraph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 You people on the east coast don't know how lucky you are to have these events going on w/n a couple hundred miles of you. I would have to travel 1,000+ miles and take a week off from work just to get a damn autograph! :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 Not true sammy, I am trying to include around the states, some of these guys travel around to shows and I want to include that - but you guys probably would get that information before I do. So if we try to get this system into place it would benefit all fans, no matter where you are (unless you are in england or something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pez Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 thanks - although I still have not heard from board mods or admins - I hope this goes through, I love going to meet all the players, and sometimes at camps, you just can't get through.
