I've been a Redskins fan since 1956. Eddie LeBaron was the QB and Joe Kuharich was Head Coach. We've been through a lot of lean years and a few good times. I hope Shanahan can do something with them.

“I’ve been a Redskins fan since 1956. Eddie LeBaron was the QB and Joe Kuharich was Head Coach”

You sure brought back the memories for me with your mention of Eddie LeBaron from Oakdale, Calif. He went on from Oakdale High to a great career as QB for then College of the Pacific in Stockton....he was called a magician for his ability to fake players (and referees) out of their jock straps.
In 1947 our grammar school played football...no pads tackle against Valley Home school in LeBarons’ cow pasture. Our biggest fear was not injury, but landing in a fresh cow pie.
Thanks for letting an old fud rant on this.

I only go as far back as the Sonny Jurgenson/Billy Kilmer days and watching my big brother destroy a TV tray when they lost the ‘72 Super Bowl to the Dolphins during their undefeated season.
