Had this thought watching the game last night. When Mitchell is inducted in the Hall of Fame, he better damn sure be in Redskin uniform.
I loved Mitchell as a Skin and sure did hate to see him go. Whatta gamer.
Has this been discussed ever in the Washington press?

I think the press feels he'll be in the league for a while and that he can still perform at the top level of kick returners. I think over time Mitchell will forgive us completely but if he doesn't, he will most likely go in as a Skin because he knows that he spent almost 10 years with us and he'll thank the fans, too.

will be interesting to see him return against us for the first time in another nfc east uniform.

Hailskins he was an eagle before a giant so we've seen this before. I just wanted to say he was so pissed at us for letting him go he said that the main reason he stayed in the NFC East was to make us pay. (I know, I know a lot of people say that about their divisions when they leave - i.e.Trotter-)
With that said I sincerely hope he goes in as a SKIN. I still respect him and take a shot to his great SKINS career anytime we play him. Going in as someone else would be a discrace. ala T dorsett.

maybe i should have put "another" in italics, i sort of meant it as a joke, kinda like damn, not again

he always plays solid. did you see how many special teams tackles he had mon nite? that was great, not just a return man. thats what we need, a real special teams leader that can do it all......... sigh. damn you marty!!!!!!!!!!! why did snyder ever allow it??

I also saw Larry Centers playing for the Patriot game this past weekend. Hated to see him go as well...thanks Marty.
Just imagine him in Spurrier's offense...although I know SS doesn't throw to backs often.
