I hope Sammy pulls through. IMO, he is the best Redskin of all time. [-o<

He is 90+....cant say I am praying for him. I dont wish harm on Sammy but he has lived a very rich life. I get sad when a thirty of forty year old dies.

Lived a Great and Long Life indeed. I'm thankful for his years as a REDSKIN. He was great. I hope he lives long enough to see the SKINS win another SB.

One of the true greats. Let's hope he wins this one.

Jake -- how do you know that he's the best of all time? You're freaking 18 years old -- you didn't even see Riggins play!

Seriously, I didn't see Sammy but did see Sonny, Billy, Joe T., Charley Taylor, Art Monk, Dave Butz (that was one big fella), Riggins and one of my favorites of all time -- Neal Olkie...from UM..a guy who did so much with his talent -- a true team guy.

If Jake is 18, his mom is 40'ish and his g-ma is 60'ish...Not too likely.

Plus, what do woman know about football?

I'm not going to say he is the greatest Redskins of all time bc I didn't see him play but I will say that I hope he pulls through this.

Jake:

From what my Dad told me, and what I heard from others (now in their '80's), and read, Sammy Baugh was truly the greatest Redskin ever.

Consider:

- one year he led the league in pass completions and pass interceptions. Think about that a bit.

- Old-timers declare that Baugh intervented the modern forward pass. He invented the tight-spiral bullet pass. Older guys lobbed the ball, tossed it up, but Slingin Sammy made the forward pass a true weapon.

We all know about SKINS from before our time!
Young Buck Jake impresses me on a lot of stats.
anyway, it doesnt matter...cuz it's about resepct to Baugh!

Well I came across this link tonight and figured I'd share an early 92nd birthday wish for Sammy. His birthday is tomorrow. Happy birthday Sammy!

Sammy was the greatest of all time. I have an article that I wrote awhile ago that needs some polishing that I haven't had time to do. I'll get that sucker up in the next few days so that people who have not learned about this incredible athlete can do so.

and happy birthday..

Yes, greatest of all time. Some quotes from the HOF spot that quote linked:

Premier passer who influenced great offensive revolution. . .All-NFL seven years. . . NFL passing, punting, interception champ, 1943. . .Six-time NFL passing leader. . . History's top punter.

It's one thing to be a good passer; another to be the guywho invents the forward pass.
