Today in Sports History the Washington Redskins were formed!

July 9th 1932

Of Course back then they were called the Boston Braves before changing their name a year later to Boston Redskins and then in 1937 moving to Washington D.C.

The name the Redskins was never meant to be taken as an insult but instead honored the tough and brave nature of the Native Americans.

By wearing those colors and that logo we are essentially doing the same as we did in the days of the Boston tea party, showing our respect for the Native American culture and way of life.

Here is John Riggins and the Redskins defeating the Miami Dolphins in 1983! Hail to the Redskins Hail Victory Braves on the war path fight for all D.C.!

He left to serve his country in the Korean War in 1951 only to return and dominate the league.

In 1963 Ford announced after a shutout that he had quit smoking saying, "My doctor told me that whenever I think of smoking, I should think of a bus starting up and blowing the exhaust in my face."

What a Guy!
