Hall of Fame


Yesterday, Art Monk and Darrell Green were inducted into the Hall of Fame.  If my dad was here, it's possible he and I would have headed out to Ohio just to see it all go down.  They both were representative of the great Skins years....and the years that he and I both loved. Throughout the day yesterday, my mind went to the pre-season game my dad and I went to at RFK in 1994.  Art Monk had been traded to the NY Jets, and was on his way to a record-setting season. I remember we were sitting behind an end zone, and Art Monk scored a touchdown against us...me and my dad, and all the other fans stood and cheered.  I don't even remember who won the game.  I really just remember being there with my dad, and Art Monk's TD.
