The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Hello everyone,

I just discovered this site yesterday and I spent hours reading the post here. This is an awesome site for skin fans.

It is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard on getting info on the skins here in San Diego. Now, I have the ability to get the information I so desperately crave for.

I have be a fan since 1980, when I moved to Springfield, VA from Hawaii. I have be hooked ever sense. I am so glad that Gibbs returned to coach. I always thought Sperrier (SP?) was a mistake from the beginning. Then there was Schottenheimer. I wasn't especially happy with that decision either. Now my second favorite team, Chargers, have him. Gibbs hire was the best thing Snyder did in a long time.

Thank you for this site.

I cant stand Steve! He would not put in the necessary effort to win in this league. In his first season we beat the Hawks with Davis running the ball and at his press conference you would have thought his dog died! He would rather lose passing than win running...not too bright!

Fastforward to the future and why I began to watch Washington as a youth......Gibbs, running game, and the destruction of that stupid lil star. I havent been this excited in a while.

man thats the thing that gets me. when spurrier was first hired, i thought wow, this is gonna be awesome. after his first year i had my doubts, but with the addition of the "speed" guys he wanted, i thought it still had a shot a working. we started out 3-1, and i was truly excited again. but as the league figured out what he was doing, he didn't try any counter moves and we got pummeled. the best the offense looked was in the latter part of the season when hue jackson was calling plays, cuz he actually tried to run the ball. spurrier
ok, i'm done, i got all worked up thinking about that jackass.

Oh my God thats two Skins fans In San Diego. I think we are in the makings of a West Coast Fan Club, LOL. I am in the Chula Vista area. Good to have you here.

What really got my knickers in a knot with Spurrier is that he thought that he could bring in all of his scrub FSU player, that couldn't make it anywhere else in the NFL, and though that they could play better just because they played for him before. Come on, that was the worse set of QB's I have ever saw, thats including the Srubboys set (thats for you Grim).

Later

I live in San Diego (actually Carlsbad now) too... met the guy who is going to be the best man at my wedding on Saturday watching a Redskins game in SD in 1989! Welcom!
