NoCalMike Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 As I was thinking of what jersey to buy in the offseason, all I could think about was worrying about that player leaving the team, and me being stuck with yet another jersey that ends up in the back of the closet never to be worn again. I really want a Sean Taylor jersey, but I have decided that no matter how good he ends up, I am waiting until he signs a second contract long term with the Redskins. I think the perfect jersey for my dilemma is a Darrell Green jersey. Spent his entire career as a Washington Redskin, and was the epitome of class. That is someone who's jersey I would proudly wear year round. :notworthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sknzfan Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I Do ......wore it to Every game the Last 20 Years......Until this Past Tampa Game when I got my New Lavar 56..... He's already missed ALMOST as many games as DG did his WHOLE Career !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Yeah I got one, but it's too small for me to wear anymore. I tried wearing it to change our luck in the Cincy game at halftime and it tore a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 Another thing I enjoyed about Darrell Green is that because of his longevity, he was a player that bridged a gap between two generations of 'Skins fans. I was alive, but too young to really FULLY enjoy the Skins dominance in the 80's, but Darrell Green was still playing all through my highschool years, and this was one player my Dad could tell me stories about, that I still got to watch every week on TV. Greatness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eeyeats Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I've got one, it was the first football jersey I ever got. I love it. You're absolutely right, Green was the epitome of class. I think it's an excellent choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 A Jersey? How about those with multiple DG jersies? I've got three of them. A white ADIDAS Auth, a white Rebok replica, & a 70th replica. I did however manage to change things up this past season & get a Portis burgundy replica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny_Blaze Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Only jersey I ever bought where the player did not leave the team the next year (Davis, B Johnson, Bailey). I got the 70th anniversary one, it is my favorite jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Used to own and Art Monk, John Riggens, and Darrell Green jerseys, ( replicas obviously), but in between a mover or 5 they turned up missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfan080 Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I got the 70th anny one. I bought it a couple years ago when the jerseys were like Mathew's, Wurfell, Gardner and Smoot, Ramsey and then DG. At the time I was like Hell No to Mathews/Wurfell, Smoot was still kinda so/so at the time back then and then Ramsey was a rookie. So DG was the only logical choice.

Walking Deadman Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I have 2. My 1st Redskins jersey was a white green Jersey. I have worn it more than any of my other skins Jerseys (I own 8 jerseys currently). I also have a Home/Red D. Green jersey. I'll be wearing my Arrington or Taylor jerseys at the games next season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
