SkinsHokieFan Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 ....met him tonight at the Clarendon Ballroom. My friend and I recognized him and spoke to him for a bit and he was one of the nicest pro athletes you can ever meet. Definitley looked like he was having a good time, asked for our names when we started speaking to him, and was very appreciative of the support. He sounded very optimistic about the season and told me when I asked him about Sean Taylor not to worry about Sean Taylor, saying that Sean Taylor is going to be great , and will be just fine this season. Seriously Marcus was just a real nice guy, a great person to represent our team, and one of those high character guys Joe Gibbs looks for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAHA, be thankful you have the nicest weather in the world all year round, some of the most beautiful beaches, and most beautiful landscape. But no pro football team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timberob Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 At training camp last year Washington stop in front of me to sign what appeared to be about a thousand autographs. Once I got mine I spent the next 10 minutes having a conversation with him while he finished. He was so level headed and nice and modest that I was taken back. Great guy.

Hooper Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Best linebacker on our team. Always is where he's supposed to be and never whiffs on big hits. A certain someone could learn a lot from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Arrington can help this defense make some big plays but there is no question that the 'core' is Griffin, Washington and Springs.......the three free agents we acquired in the offseason of 2004.........you know that supposedly BAD period when the team made poor and oversized moves :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins11 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 It seems like all the guys brought in last year seem like genuinely good character guys. Springs, Washington, Griffin. Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsHokieFan Posted April 16, 2005 Author Share Posted April 16, 2005 The cool thing was as I was leaving the place, I went up to him again and started talking and he actually did remember my name which was pretty cool. Like I said, great ambassador for our team, heck of a nice down to earth guy, and he didn't have some massive entourage or anything riddiculous. We need more guys like him on our team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
