Well former, every 'Skins fan I've ever known always loved the old man. Jack Kent Cooke simply opened his checkbook and said "get the job done fellas."

Sure he was eccentric, and that Colombian wife of his was always in the newspaper, but it's not like he was making draft picks or calling plays.

Not to mention, he built his own stadium. He didn't buy off politicians or pillage the taxpayers like the stadiums in Philly, Pittsburgh and Baltimore. He built the place and named it simply, Redskins Stadium. People suggested to him that he should name it after himself, but he found the idea silly. Once he died, they named it Jack Kent Cooke stadium, and it is now called FedEx field.

Old Jack always had the fans at heart, "the best bloody fans in football."

Then you clearly run with a different bunch of 'skins fans than the ones I know. They claim that he gave 'em the creeps.

Hey, it just doesn't matter to me! You'll be hard pressed to find a team that I care less about. That's right, I care more about the Cowboys than I do the Redskins (of course, my 'care' extends to hoping they fall flat on their Cowboys butts).
