Famous People who are Redskins Fans

[Skinsfan1906]

So, do you guys know any famous people who identify themselves as Washington Redskins fans? These people could be musicians, actors, politicians, atheletes, etc. I know of a few:


Wanda Sykes---Comedian/Actress. She is from the D.C. area and has stated that she has been a Skins fan since childhood.....and continues to be.

Tim Legler----Former NBA Player/Sports Analyst. Played a few of his NBA seasons in Washington, but regularly states that he is a "die-hard" Redskins fan.

MYA----R & B Songstress. Grew up in Landover, Maryland and said in a television interview that she follows the Washington Redskins.

Dale Jarrett---NASCAR driver. Once interviewed and asked who was his favorite football team. His response; The Washington Redskins.

Donnie Simpson---Former Nationally Syndicated Music show host for BET (now D.C. local morning DJ). He used to have a Redskins helmet in the backdrop as he did his National BET Music show "Video Soul". Asked about his affiliation, he stated that although he is from Detroit, he never liked the LIONS, and once he moved to D.C., he was swept away with Redskins fever and became a fan.

James Brown---Not the abusive singer :rolleyes:...but the Washington D.C. native who is a sports reporter for Fox TV. He continues to be a Redskins fan.

Katie Couric---Today show anchor. Not quite sure about this one, but I know that she is from the D.C. area and went to The U of Virginia. If my memory serves me correct, I think I heard her refer to herself as a Redskins fan at one time.

Dan Quale---Former US Vice President. In an interview he mentioned the Redskins as ONE of the teams he roots for. I wonder who the others are??

Joe Clair---Comedian, formally of BET. We went to college together, and he is an AVID Redskins fan.


These names are off the top of my head. I'm sure that there are more. Does anyone else know of any famous people who are fans of the Burgundy & Gold???

[Skinsfan1906]

......oh, and on a sad note, Steve Francis of the NBA, who is a local guy who played basketball at the University of Maryland.............is a fan of the dredded Dallas Cowboys. Oh, how that sucks.

[CNYSkinFan]

Josh Lymon of the West Wing is a Redskin fan (the character not the actor lol)

But that probably does not count.

[Brandon777]

I heard Matthew McConaughey is a redskins fan, despite he is from Texas. Dale Jr. is a redskins fan.

[Skinsfan1906]

Matthew McConaughey....now that would be cool (being from Texas that is). On another note about him, he co-starred with Sandra Bullock in a movie a few years ago (forgot the name of it). In any event, they interview Sandra and she said that she was openly hitting on him and wanted to date him in REAL life, but he had "no interest" in her. What the heck is wrong with him??? :lol1:

[whitskins]

David Aldridge, basketball analyst, is a massive Skins fan and wrote an emotional article to celebrate the return of Joe Gibbs. Shortly after, ESPN fired him... The call for his head probably came from Pasta Belly.

[smoss]

I think Marion Barry is a skins fan as well :lol1:

He and Bullock dated for a while actually, I imagine she may be a Skins fan as well since she is from Arlington. Could our Redskins have sparked this Hollywood love connection?

[MoeRedskins]

Scott Van Pelt from ESPN Sportscenter is also a skins fan and a UMD alumni.

[Redblood]

The Hon. Sen. George Allen Jr. (Va). I've heard him on the local sports radio here in Norfolk.

Saw him on the floor of the Senate when I visited the Capital two years ago.

[LATrueRedskin]

Matthew McConaughey is definately a Redskins fan. He's said it on the David Letterman show and has appeared on shows wearing a Skins jersey. That's why no matter how bad his movies are, he is still the man.

[thecheat48]

I'd heard that Dale Jr was a diehard Skins fan.

Didnt know about Dale Jarrett.

I wouldnt be surprised if a whole bunch of the NASCAR drivers are Skins fans, considering they were team of the South up until the 70s, possibly even 80s. Maybe they have flocked to the Dirty Birds or Panthers, but i'll be damned if Richard Petty doesnt wear the B and G.

Anyone know any NASCAR drivers who are Skins fans?

Man this is a good thread...if I say so myself. :)

[skinsholein1]

Mike Omalley from the sitcom Yes dear!!!He is always wearing SKINS shirts and lids.

His Character is Jimmy..

[IowaSkinsFan]

Joe Gibbs, does he count?

[MoeRedskins]

Just found an article about famous panthers fans, which should make it about a paragraph long but they streched it out for two pages, but in the article I saw something interest about how Nelson Mandela is a cowboys fan? So is Celine Deon, but she just likes the colors. The file is a pdf, so it takes a minute to load and you adobe.

Carolina Panthers are stupid. (http://www.panthers.com/news/roar/celebrity_fans.pdf#search='famous%20fans%20redskin s')

Im sure anyone whoever drives for Gibbs racing has to be. Well it should be a requirement.

[DUCKIN_TACKLERS]

That guy who plays Jimmy on YES DEAR is a Skins fan he always wears skins stuff on the show and I dont think its cause it was wrote in that way.

[whitskins]

That guy who plays Jimmy on YES DEAR is a Skins fan he always wears skins stuff on the show and I dont think its cause it was wrote in that way.

I may have to start watching that show!

[redskin_rich]

Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman.

[whitskins]

Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman.

For real? Hackman is THE MAN!!

[redskin_rich]

For real? Hackman is THE MAN!!
I've seen him in a couple different interviews with a Redskins cap on.

[Skinsfan1906]

He and Bullock dated for a while actually, I imagine she may be a Skins fan as well since she is from Arlington. Could our Redskins have sparked this Hollywood love connection?


OH YEAH, I forgot that they did actually date. When they interviewed Sandra and she mentioned that she was interested in him but the feelings were not mutual, it was DURING the shooting of that movie. They did in-fact hook up some time later. Man, dating Sandra AND being a Skins fan (not to mention, a Millionaire)......what a life.

[MoeRedskins]

That guy who plays Jimmy on YES DEAR is a Skins fan he always wears skins stuff on the show and I dont think its cause it was wrote in that way.

isn't that the guy who used to be The Rick?

[Skinsfan1906]

Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman.


Seriously?

[blackpowerman2k5]

mattew macunahe i think that how his name is spelled, his a big redskisn fan

[redskin_rich]

Seriously?
Remember in '91, Costner was at the Redskins practice and said he was a Skins fan and also what an honor it was to throw some balls to Art Monk.
Hackman wear's Skins hat's a lot.

Another one is NASCAR legend "The King" Richard Petty.


I wonder if Robert Duvall is a fan, he lives in Middleburg, VA.

[tbfoster1]

Man, dating Sandra AND being a Skins fan (not to mention, a Millionaire)......what a life.

the movie was "A Time to Kill" with oliver platt, kefer sutherland and samual L jackson btw

[whitskins]

Richard Kelly, director of the awesome movie Donnie Darko, is also a VA native and Skins fan, in fact he has footage of Joe Gibbs and our team on a television during one of the scenes in the movie, except we are losing in the game, but he gives Joe Gibbs a shout out. That deserves respect.

[Skinsfan1906]

Man this is cool. Didn't know that there were so many diverse "famous" Redskins fans out here. I know that there are much more............

I'm wondering about Bernard Shaw. He is regularly seen in the owners box cheering on the team. I don't know if it is because he is an actual fan, or simply becuse he's buds with Snyder.

[blackpowerman2k5]

i heard oj simpson and michael jackson are huge redskins fans ,not

[whitskins]

What about Dave Chappelle, he is from DC. That dude needs to rep the Skins too.

Oh yeah and another person is that kid who used to be on Punk'd and was on that show Quintuplets, his name is Ryan Pinkston. He is from MD. I saw him on MTV cribs and he had some Skins gear around his house and I read last year in an article he said he was a Skins fan but he thought Hasselbeck was our best QB.

[PA Skins Girl]

Matthew McConaughey is definately a Redskins fan. He's said it on the David Letterman show and has appeared on shows wearing a Skins jersey. That's why no matter how bad his movies are, he is still the man.
As if I needed another reason to love Matthew McConaughey!

I think Paul Tagliabue is a Skins fan.

[Terps and Skins]

Scott Van Pelt from ESPN Sportscenter is also a skins fan and a UMD alumni.

Yeah Van Pelt went to nearby Sherwood High School in Montgomery County

[Skinsfan1906]

As if I needed another reason to love Matthew McConaughey!

I think Paul Tagliabue is a Skins fan.

That's right. Paul Tagliabue is a Skins fan. Heard him say it about 5 years ago. He has to be "moderate" in his position as Commish.....but you are right on that one!

[whitskins]

That's right. Paul Tagliabue is a Skins fan. Heard him say it about 5 years ago. He has to be "moderate" in his position as Commish.....but you are right on that one!

Haha, no wonder we get under the salary cap every year!

Is Petty really a skins fan? Thats rad. He's one of my favorites of all time.

I was sorta joking in my post about him being a skins fan. I didnt know. But, again, makes sense that NASCAR drivers over 40 who grew up in the South would be Skins fans if they like football...

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

Man this is a good thread...if I say so myself. :)
yes it is. i was thinking about starting the exact same thread a couple of days ago. :awesomewo

[TertiaryView]

So, other than Barry, we have no politicians fans? This fact might make us better off in the long run!

:lol1:

[MONK_in_HOF]

Not really famous but Reed Johnson of the Toronto Blue Jays is a huge skins fan. That makes him and everyone else on board OK w/ me. I have become a fan of most athletes I discover this about.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

As if I needed another reason to love Matthew McConaughey!

I think Paul Tagliabue is a Skins fan.
lol....seriously! http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/love/1/love10.gif

i do remember tagliabue being mentioned as a skins fan.....no wonder people hate on the skins so much!

[smoak]

Man this is a good thread...if I say so myself. :)

Here, here! I agree (somwething different thankfully).

Everyone has hit most of the ones I know...

There was a show on CBS called Yes, Dear that I watched for the sole fact that the lead guy was a Skins fan and he would wear gear on the show.

[Skinsfan1906]

yes it is. i was thinking about starting the exact same thread a couple of days ago. :awesomewo


LIAR!!!!!


Just jokin'.

Glad I beat you to it. :)

[whitskins]

Stop hijacking threads, haven't you been banned yet?

[smoak]

[SkinsASchamps]

Beamer from VT i believe. any one else know for sure?

I saw him walking around tech with a skins hat on.

[MONK_in_HOF]

Yup, the Skins used to own the Carolinas when it came to NFL. Thanks to Atlanta being god awful during that stretch. Good to see so many people still on board even despite the new Carolina franchise, and the many heartbreaks the skins have delivered recently.

Petty use to be on the sidelines for home games at RFK quite often, after the NASCAR season ended.

[whitskins]

this is why u never mix women and sports, just going to whole other place :flower1:

I implore anyone with bannishment powers to use them swiftly on this clown.

:rolleyes:

[blackpowerman2k5]

ok i am sorry

i am sorry :Peace: make peace

[smoak]

OH!!! I GOT ONE!!!

Not really famous, but back in the early 90's when I still LOVED baseball and the Phillies, I almost accidently walked right into John Kruk at a game at RFK! He is a VA guy and was wearing a Skins cap!!!

[IMALILTEAPOT]

What about Dave Chappelle, he is from DC. That dude needs to rep the Skins too.
I love Chappelle to death, but he seems like he likes New York more than DC. He's probably a Giants or Jets fan

Wow, i didnt know there were so many famous skins fans. I cant wait until we strat winning more, so we can see them appear at games and stuff

[blackpowerman2k5]

:rolleyes:


true redskins fan i stay in germantown md, we pretty close cool :Peace:

Chapelle definately reps DC constantly in his standup and stuff like that. If anything, he's probably a Skins fan. He's probably not much into sports.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

this is why u never mix women and sports, just going to whole other place :flower1:
:rolleyes: whatever man......

miss lady skin why you have a dumnce hat on sean taylor dont u know his just a young black man trying to come up, you should know better, once again, whatever man...for a young black man trying to come up, he sure put himself into a bad situation by doing something so stupid....

like whitskins said, stop hijaking threads. http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/character/1/character08.gif

Thanks man.

Actually, I almost started this thread in desperation. :rolleyes:

I was getting sick and tired of the Sean Taylor stuff, the negative stuff as well as the usual lag in NFL news during this time of year.

Although I thought that it was a good light-hearted topic (and something different for us to ponder). I didn't expect the thread to take off as it has, but it's all good. Plus, I'm learning more about some folks whom I never imagined were Redskins fans.

[LATrueRedskin]

no i think he has to come to dc to smoke that good dc crack , him and berry :flower1:

Another idiotic post. You're not helping yourself.

[blackpowerman2k5]

i am sorry

Ok, you(either):
A-have an IQ of 15
B-are a troll
B-or are an ex member who was banned coming back trying to cause trouble

now which is it?

[smoak]

I think Lady knows we all respect her insight (as well as the insight of our other female members) and love to hear what she has to say.

In a Redskins fan/trivia contest, I'm not sure our male membership would win out over our females.... They seriously know their stuff!!!

[akhhorus]

i am sorry

Seriously, how is this guy not banned? He's spammed all the threads, been rude, chauvenistic, and can't seem to construct an English sentence.

"I did not mean about 5% of them" what kind of apology is that?

[thecheat48]

Petty use to be on the sidelines for home games at RFK quite often, after the NASCAR season ended.

Was this during the 70s/80s? I imagine so.

And if anyone has a picture of him next to GIbbs with his trademark hat, thats becoming my avatar. Send me the link. I'll have to search for it.

[bwparker]

You are one ignorant MOFO!

Someone please ban this sucka!!!!

He dissed LadyNRed for pete's sake!!!! That's an offense punishable by lethal injection!!!
WOW! I just got that I should read it

"Lady In Red Skins Fan"

I usually just think

"Lady Redskins Fan" and ignore the N all together :lol1:

[LATrueRedskin]

Ok, you(either):
A-have an IQ of 15
B-are a troll
B-or are an ex member who was banned coming back trying to cause trouble

now which is it?

Good chance of all three.

[blackpowerman2k5]

ok ok i am sorry

sorry
i did not mean 100% i respect women , over weight people too, and i will be nice and get alone with every one esle :flower1:

[RedskinsDave]

Mike O'Malley, aka The Rick, is NOT a Redskins fan. His character is supposed to be from Virginia. He is a die hard Sox/Pats fan and his character, Jimmy, was even wearing their gear this past season. The other actor on the show, Anthony Clark is a Redskins fan from southwest VA.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

You are one ignorant MOFO!

Someone please ban this sucka!!!!

He dissed LadyNRed for pete's sake!!!! That's an offense punishable by lethal injection!!!
lol....thanks RM. of all the things he has done thus far, that has definitely got to be the worst! ;)

I think Lady knows we all respect her insight (as well as the insight of our other female members) and love to hear what she has to say.

In a Redskins fan/trivia contest, I'm not sure our male membership would win out over our females.... They seriously know their stuff!!!
thanks smoak....im not too worried about this guy......

[smoak]

am sorry for all the bad things i said, i did not mean about 5% of them i am srry :Peace:

Sounds like a cowboy fan to me.... you tell by the obsession with crack.

[Skinsfan1906]

OK, the man has apologized like 4 or 5 times. Maybe it's just me, but there are a whole lot of stupid coments made on this board. Honestly, I've probably had a few myself (like most of us).

While I understand everyone's anger, and while I felt the exact same way as you guys, I'm (very cautiously) willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. If we get rid of him for offensive remarks....then probably 70 percent of us would be gone (including a moderator or two).

Every clear thinking individual on this site knows for a fact that LadyNRedskinsfan is one of the most knowledable fans around here, regardless of gender. Ignorance is just that. Lets move on.

[IowaSkinsFan]

ok ok i am sorry

sorry
i did not mean 100% i respect women , over weight people too, and i will be nice and get alone with every one esle :flower1:

If I could ban you right now I would. You just don't seem to be able to take the free advice given to you, or your 10 years old and think this is a game.

If you are trying to make friends here with the super poor spelling and the general abuse of the English language, it isn't working.

One other thing, LadyN is higly respected here by all members. Don't tread on her again.

THIS IS AN OFFICIAL WARNING.

[CNYSkinFan]

Sounds like a cowboy fan to me.... you tell by the obsession with crack.
:lol1:

noiw that is funny

[RedskinsDave]

I wonder how long a poster by the name whitepowerman2k5 would last......not a sermon, just a thought....

[Skinsfan1906]

lol....thanks RM. of all the things he has done thus far, that has definitely got to be the worst! ;)


thanks smoak....im not too worried about this guy......

Yeah, plus, don't you have like 5 or 6 brothers? :)

[LATrueRedskin]

Ahhhhhhh Lady...... ;)

[CNYSkinFan]

I wonder how long a poster by the name whitepowerman2k5 would last......not a sermon, just a thought....

About as long as this guy is gonna last. I am taking odds the owners will ban him by end of business.

[Skinsfan1906]

I wonder how long a poster by the name whitepowerman2k5 would last......not a sermon, just a thought....

On the surface, sounds logical but historically, a different meaning all together, but truly, that is a completely different topic.

[C-7]

Good point.

[chrisbcbu]

Wow a good thread like this turned ugly really fast.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

Yeah, plus, don't you have like 5 or 6 brothers? :)
SIX. :D

[IMALILTEAPOT]

lets just get back to the thread

[C-7]

I got a new question: are there any current Redskins players who grew up as skins fans?

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

Wow a good thread like this turned ugly really fast.
yeah i know.....lets think of some more celebrities.

anyone know of any other athletes in other sports who are skins fans?

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

I got a new question: are there any current Redskins players who grew up as skins fans?
i dont know of any current redskins players, but i know brian westbrook from the iggles grew up a skins fan....

[LATrueRedskin]

Bruce Smith maybe? I know he's from Virginia.

[Ibleedburgundy]

OH!!! I GOT ONE!!!

Not really famous, but back in the early 90's when I still LOVED baseball and the Phillies, I almost accidently walked right into John Kruk at a game at RFK! He is a VA guy and was wearing a Skins cap!!!

Kruk is cool. He has shown enthusiasm for the Nationals as well. At the beginning of the season he was saying how underrated Nick Johnson is. Boy was he right!

[Skinsfan1906]

Bruce Smith maybe? I know he's from Virginia.


No, actually, Bruce Smith (and Howie Long) both Virginians, and both grew up Pittsburgh Steelers fans. Well, they were the team of the '70's, so I guess I can kind of see that (although I think that you should root for your hometeam).

[Ibleedburgundy]

I wonder how long a poster by the name whitepowerman2k5 would last......not a sermon, just a thought....

My sentiments exactly. I tried to suggest a name change but he won't listen.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

McCants is a big skins fan, too bad he might not be playing here for long, damn

[Ibleedburgundy]

I got a new question: are there any current Redskins players who grew up as skins fans?

I could be mistaken but I thought Lavar Arington grew up a Skins fan.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

I could be mistaken but I thought Lavar Arington grew up a Skins fan.
nope, hes a big steelers fan

[LATrueRedskin]

No, actually, Bruce Smith (and Howie Long) both Virginians, and both grew up Pittsburgh Steelers fans. Well, they were the team of the '70's, so I guess I can kind of see that (although I think that you should root for your hometeam).

I figured. I was going to say Howie Long, too, but you already answered that.

[CNYSkinFan]

Shawn Springs grew up a big Redskin fan along with his dad.

[LATrueRedskin]

Shawn Springs grew up a big Redskin fan along with his dad.

I thought he was a Cowboys fan. Didn't his dad play for the 'Boys? I thought about him because he's around here.

[C-7]

What could be cooler than playing for the team you grew up rooting for?

[chrisbcbu]

Shawn Springs grew up a big Redskin fan along with his dad.

I thought his dad played for Dallas and he was a dallas fan also.

[redskin_rich]

Heath Shuler was a big Redskins fan before we drafted him.

*ducks for cover*



I think Shawn Barber was a Skins fan and (Richie Redskin)Rich Owens was.

[IowaSkinsFan]

Heath Shuler was a big Redskins fan before we drafted him.

Yeah, Richie Redskin was. Barber may have been, he went to Richmond, was a Spider.

[whitskins]

Bruce Smith maybe? I know he's from Virginia.

I don't think Bruce Smith could have been a Skins fan since he hardly even rooted for our team when he actually PLAYED for us... All he cared about was his damn sacks title.

[CNYSkinFan]

I thought he was a Cowboys fan. Didn't his dad play for the 'Boys? I thought about him because he's around here.

I was pretty sure he was a skin fan and maybe him and his dad fought about it. I know he loved coming home.

[redskin_rich]

No, Shawn even admitted to having Cowboy underwear, to which Smoot replied that he was going to give him some ex-lax.

Yup, when I read that quote from smoot a few posts back I got a choked up feeling in my throat. It's wierd but Smoot is really gone. I guess it's setting in....

Smoot for life, man. Smoot for life


I know for a fact Shawn was a cowboys fan growing up. I go to the same high school he went to, and all my teachers that had him as a student said he was a cowboys fan. Its ok, Shawn is like my favorite redskin right now, hes an exception

[redskinz#1fan]

Joe Gibbs, does he count?

Damn, that was my pick! Now I have to try & come up with another one! :banghead:

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

Damn, that was my pick! Now I have to try & come up with another one! :banghead:
dan snyder. :)

[IowaSkinsFan]

Damn, that was my pick! Now I have to try & come up with another one! :banghead:

The two most obvious ones:

rskinsfan10
hail2skins

Anyone who counts Suzy Kolber as an acquaintance qualifies as famous for me!

[Redskinmayhem]

Well, now that Smoot is gone, I guess he qualifies as a B&G fan. Didn't he say he would always root for the skins???

[thecheat48]

Didnt Cooley say at some point that he always liked the Redskins and rooted for them?

What about Ramsey? Wasnt he a skins fan?

Maybe not a big fan, but more then most.

Then again, maybe i just bumped my head and am making this up.

When Springs was signed, didn't he saw that he was torn? His dad played for the cowgirls, but I think he said he was a Skins fan.

Van Pelt... Brinkwood Rd. Brinklow Md. When his parents were building the house my brother and I used the dirt as ramps for our dirtbikes. Man did his parents get pissed.

[Skinsfan1906]

Shawn Springs grew up a big Redskin fan along with his dad.


Naw, he was definitely a Cowboys fan growing up. He said so on a sports program down here. But you are right, he was definitely happy to come back home.

[CarMike]

Ex Redskins QB Brad Johnson was a Redskins fan. Remember, he used to have a Redskins light switch in his room as a kid.

OMT, BPM, the next time you hi-jack a thread it will be your last. Not a threat. But a promise. If you don't like it, send me a PM and i'll send you a link to another MB where that stuff is welcomed.

[Skinsfan1906]

Oh, I almost forgot, the starting point guard for the Georgia Tech Yellow-jackets (last name Jack....forgot his first name) is a Redskins fan. He's from my area (Fort Washington, Maryland) and can be seen @ times wearing his Redskins Gear.

I also think I heard Maryland Gov. Bob Ehrlich say that he followed the 'Skins, although he is from Arbutus, MD, which is far closer to Baltimore.

[redskinz#1fan]

ok ok i am sorry

sorry
i did not mean 100% i respect women , over weight people too, and i will be nice and get alone with every one esle ::

You really are just a dumb azz :moon1: and don't even know it. My dog has better writing/vocabulary skills then you. How can you come on this site and talk trash to everyone. Believe me, when I say that you are clearly out numbered! But then again, your math skills are probably on the same level as your grammar skills. :banhim:

[MoeRedskins]

I heard Jesus is a skins fan

[redskinz#1fan]

dan snyder. :)

He doesn't count! Does he? :whoknows: He may be a fan (he really seems to be a big fan, even though he has made some mistakes since being here), but no way will I call him famous. Rich- YES, Famous- HELL NO!

[chrisbcbu]

He doesn't count! Does he? :whoknows: He may be a fan (he really seems to be a big fan, even though he has made some mistakes since being here), but no way will I call him famous. Rich- YES, Famous- HELL NO!

I got a new question: are there any current Redskins players who grew up as skins fans?

Guess you missed the new question.

[C-7]

Guess you missed the new question.



LOL. I started the new question.

[redskinz#1fan]

Sounds like a cowboy fan to me.... you tell by the obsession with crack.

Now that sounds like a very valid point. Cause we all know how the COWGIRLS get down! They love them some crack! :wazzup:

[SkinsASchamps]

Didnt carlos rogers say he was a skins fan and that he grew up watching DG.

[RedskinsDave]

I heard Jesus is a skins fan

Maybe Je'sus from El Salvador. If the son of God is a Skins fan and we suck this bad, what could hell possibly look like?

[Biggie]

Maybe Je'sus from El Salvador. If the son of God is a Skins fan and we suck this bad, what could hell possibly look like?

No, Jesus is a Redskins fan. .000000000000000002% of all Biblical scholars will tell you so, and that's good enough for me!

[PA Skins Girl]

Pierson Prioleau grew up a Skins fan.

[sneeks]

LeeAnn Tweeden is a huge skins fan! I met her at a bar in Hermosa Beach once and she was all Burg and Gold cheering for the skins! She said she loved my tat!

[Axegrinder]

The Hootie and the Blowfish guys are said to be Skins fans.
All of them,except Darrius"the dolphins make me cry"Rucker.

Dale Jarrett---NASCAR driver. Once interviewed and asked who was his favorite football team. His response; The Washington Redskins.


This makes some sense. When Gibbs first started his racing team, Jarrett became one of his drivers.

[skinsfan36]

how about john thompson,and bill clinton?

[thecheat48]

how about john thompson,and bill clinton?

There have to be more people in politics.

I know Quayle is a fan. How about any other members of congress or cabinet members? Pundits?

[Biggie]

There have to be more people in politics.

I know Quayle is a fan. How about any other members of congress or cabinet members? Pundits?

99% of pundits are carpetbaggers (like Bob Novak) who move down here to insult us and accuse us of all being rich politicians, and then claim to be "Washingtonians".

I know Barb Mikulski is a Ravens fan, so I'm sure there has to be a Redskin in the Senate somewhere. Maybe somebody from VA?

[RedskinRyan]

the dude who played the dad in smart guy always wore skins stuff

[OCSkinzFan]

Didnt carlos rogers say he was a skins fan and that he grew up watching DG.

That was Pacman Jones, he said that. It was one of his best qualities as a cornerback.

[OCSkinzFan]

Tom Clancy (Hunt for Red October etc.) is a Skinz Fan. He's from Southern Maryland.

[redskin_rich]

Tom Clancy (Hunt for Red October etc.) is a Skinz Fan. He's from Southern Maryland.
I would have thought he would be a Baltimore fan, first Colts then Ravens.

[OCSkinzFan]

I would have thought he would be a Baltimore fan, first Colts then Ravens.
Nope, he was my dad's friend's insurance agent before he made it big, they hung out. But that was after the Colts left and before the Ravens so I don't know now, but when I lived in S. MD everybody was on the Skins. Lots of bandwagon people then (Gibbs' first tenure). But yea, Clancy is a DC guy.

Just curious, why would you think he' be a B-more guy?

[redskin_rich]

Nevermind, I am mixing him up with Barry Levinson.

[sarahsdad]

I think I heard a radio interview a few years ago with roger clemens and he said his favorite football team was the redskins.

[OCSkinzFan]

Nevermind, I am mixing him up with Barry Levinson.
Oh, Okay :)

[whistleandthumb]

I would have thought he would be a Baltimore fan, first Colts then Ravens.
No way he's a Balto fan. He dropped a nuclear bomb on the town in SUM OF ALL FEARS. I would never drop a nuclear bomb on FedEx Field. Ya know, in the event I ever happen to HAVE a nuclear bomb.

Pierce Brosnan says just before kickoff of SB 17 that he's rooting for the Redskins. I don't know if he's an actual fan, though... could be he thought the Redskins were a local soccer team...

[smoak]

Maybe Je'sus from El Salvador. If the son of God is a Skins fan and we suck this bad, what could hell possibly look like?

Dave a good conservative Christian like you should know that while God can be a fan, he won't tamper with that whole free will thing.

[Patrick]

Brandon Noble grew up (Va Beach) as a Redskins fan.

[skinsfan44]

Okay, this guy might be not-so-famous, but their is a show called "Garage Takeover" on the Discovery Channel, and the guy (can't remember his name) is the head contractor on the shows, and he always wears a Skins hat, and most times wears a Skins polo or sweatshirt too.

[Redskinmayhem]

Hey um....Homer Simpson is a skins fan! I remember he was rooting for us When we stomped Buffalo.

[smoak]

Hey um....Homer Simpson is a skins fan! I remember he was rooting for us When we stomped Buffalo.

No, he had money on the game. His lifelong dream was to own the Dallas Cowboys, but unfortunately he got the Denver Broncos

"Awwww..... the Denver Broncos?"

Also, he bought Landry's hat as a motivational technique.

Death to Homer. :D

Another funny Homer football line was "Marge, you know my dream is to be owner of a pro football team," "Hello, I represent the Arizona Cardinals--", "Keep walkin' buddy".

[smoak]

ah....thanks for clearing that up!

To be fair, one of the great things about Homer are the little inconsistencies and contradictions. I don't think of him as any more of Cowboys fan at all...

Grandpa: My Homer is not a communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a communist, but he is not a porn star.

[Brandon777]

I also heard that Iraqi president Allawi was a Redskin fan. I don't believe he's the president there anymore now that the elections are over. I could be wrong, but I think I remember seeing the drummer for the Red Hot Chili Peppers wearing a Redskins cap.

[Farbod]

Quote from Matthew McConaughey...

"I've been a fan since I was 4 years old. Growing up, I'd play football in the backyard wearing my [John] Riggins jersey..."

True about the pundits. One bike messenger company I worked for had Novak as a client. I used to pick up tickets for him and his friends all the time - Maryland v Duke in bball, Wizards games etc.

[AGibbsGirl]

Scott Van Pelt from ESPN Sportscenter is also a skins fan and a UMD alumni.

And an old classmate of mine at SVHS...sat next to him in 10th grade Honors English...he was a Dork then...but cool now....

[AGibbsGirl]

Yeah Van Pelt went to nearby Sherwood High School in Montgomery County

Huh, I knew him at Seneca Valley, he must have transferred after the 10th grade!!!

[AGibbsGirl]

dang this is a long thread...I'm answering things in seperate posts because I answer them as I come across them...anyone got a problem with that? http://www.industreal.spb.ru/smiles/wife.gif I thought not :D

Anyway...I saw a Cribs show with Dale Earnhart Jr. and did he show us his NASCAR trophies?
...Nooooooo he showed off his Redskin collection...he's a big fan.....

PS: Quit picking on the new kid, he got the point, he said he was sorry, so stop with the lectures everybody...only 1 or 2 responses were needed to set him straight OK? love ya all!

He insulted many other people in other threads and was constantly spamming as well, and basically just annoying everyone to death yesterday and then apologizing and then doing it all over again. He was banned.

[Redskin006]

I don't know if this has been posted by I'm pretty sure Lloyd Banks is a Skins fan.

You guys are too hard on the new people...it makes me crazy...way to quick to ban people...he was young and sounded like he wanted to try, I would have giving him a week to behave, sometimes we can teach the young ones...

whatever....

Well MOM, I got your back. I agree with you 100%. I posted something similar a few pages back. Basically, he said sorry several times and people kept loading on him.......not to mention that most of us say something ignorant or 'offensive' to someone from time to time.

If someone sincerely asks for forgiveness, shouldn't we grant it? Now whether or not he was "sincere" or not is another issue (that we can't decipher) and there are higher powers that can deal with that.

yeah i agree, i think sometimes new people come in here and think of it as a chat room. they dont read the guidelines and before they figure it out, they get lynched.

Having said that, that guy was a real piece of work. it didnt seem like anyone could get through to him.

[X-Factor13]

By the way that sean taylor pic is great.

And whats up with the flower thing that guy kept posting?

[skins74]

Mike Omalley from the sitcom Yes dear!!!He is always wearing SKINS shirts and lids.

His Character is Jimmy..

I saw him talk about that and he said the producer is a hardcore Skins fan and he makes him wear that stuff. He is not actually a fan.

[bgforever]

Walter Fauntroy former D.C. Congressman, naturally.

I get hints that Ice Cube is a Skins fan. Ok, maybe cause it was the Diron Talbert jersey in his movie, however he also wore a Priest Holmes jersey in his rap videos, so who's to say.

No problem.

By the way, you wouldn't make a lousy mod, just a fair one. To each his own, I guess. One of the great things about forums like this, is that we can indeed voice our opinions on certain matters. Some will agree, others will disagree, but life does indeed go on and the sun continues to rise every morning. :)

Mike O'Malley is the guy who played The Rick on all of those old ESPN adds, leading me to believe that the bum is a Pats fan. And a Loser.

[D-Ruck #8]

I heard Paul Tagliabue has 'SKins season tickets.

[rsty2fan]

Here's some famous people that grew up in the area/live around here that I would hope are Redskins fans:

Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters Lead Singer) Was also in Nirvana
Tim Reid (Venus Flytrap from WKRP in Cincinnati)
Daphne Reid (The 2nd mom from Fresh Prince of Bel Air)
Sissy Spacek (Lives in Charlottesville, Va)
Robert Duvall

I'd have to imagine that some of them would be Skins fans???

[rsty2fan]

Shirley MacLaine and Warren Beatty also grew up in the area. They went to Washington & Lee in Arlington I believe? I'd imagine that they are Skins fans???

Come to think of it? Donna Dixon (married to Dan Akroyd and who was on a show called Bosom Buddies with Tom Hanks) went to W&L as well. Don't know if she's a Skins fan or not??

so i would take it i'm the only one who listens to the bob and tom morning show... owell' ....chic mcgee is still a hell of a redskins fan, but he'd be hardpressed to be a bigger fan that me.........yoohoooooo

Aw man, my oops, yeah ICE Cube in a "Raiduhs" jersey for sure. I meant Snoop Dog! :banghead:

[rsty2fan]

Yea, Venus was a cool character! My brother in laws mother is married to a guy named Max who's sister is Daphne who's married to Tim Reid. Confused yet??? I am!!! Ha Ha :lol1:

so i would take it i'm the only one who listens to the bob and tom morning show... owell' ....chic mcgee is still a hell of a redskins fan, but he'd be hardpressed to be a bigger fan that me.........yoohoooooo

Bob and Tom 94.7 in Indianapolis, yeah Chic is the man and has to beat back some hilarious questions from Bob and Tom, during the season. They also like the novelty of talking about the Skins, because its always marketable (people listen).

[redskin_rich]

Shirley MacLaine and Warren Beatty also grew up in the area. They went to Washington & Lee in Arlington I believe? I'd imagine that they are Skins fans???

I thought Donna Dixon went to Hayfield HS, her dad owned Hillybilly Heaven, a C&W restaurant/bar on rt1 in Woodbridge. Akroyd and her use to have a house on the Potomac in Hallowing Point. Don't know if they are Redskins fans though.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

You may be right? For some reason, I thought she went to W&L Hayfield would make more sense as it is closer to where HillBilly Heaven used to be. Wonder how Donna's looking these days???? :rolleyes:

[Skinsfan1906]

Aw man, my oops, yeah ICE Cube in a "Raiduhs" jersey for sure. I meant Snoop Dog! :banghead:

Nah, Snoop is a fan of the Steelers, definitely. He says so in one of his raps, plus said so in an interview (not to mention that he wears Steelers gear in many of his videos). He also roots for the Pats, because Willie McGinnest went to his high school back in "the LBC" (Long Beach, CA).

And speaking of local people, Goldie Hahn is from Montgomery County Maryland. If she is a football fan, I would think that she would be a Skins fan. New England Pats Coach Bellichick is from Annapolis Maryland. I know he coaches another team, but could he have grown up following the Skins? Also, George Clinton from band Parliament/Funkadelic lived in D.C. for several years and speaks fondly of the city. Might he be a Skins fan? Of course then there is:

Martin Lawrence, Comedian

you may be right, but she was military brat who has moved around alot and her parents still ive in maryland.

[Aurej]

Matthew McConaughey is definately a Redskins fan. He's said it on the David Letterman show and has appeared on shows wearing a Skins jersey. That's why no matter how bad his movies are, he is still the man.


Lets not forget the incident involving his arrest at 2:00 A.M. for playing the Bongo drums too loud while he was stoned and naked, clearly the man. His films alas are awful.

[CamLwalk]

Somebody mentioned Gene Hackman being a Redskins fan. Anybody remember a pretty bad cop movie with Dan Akroid called Loose Cannons? Hackman wore a Redskins jacket throughout the movie.

Tommy Davidson a Vikings fan? Who in their right mind would root for the Vikings (outside of Minnesoda, that is)? LoL. As for LaVar dating Dominique Dawes, I never heard of that one, but LaVar has been known to date many women of the D.C. area. Every time he was seen in public, it seemed as though he was with a different woman.

On another note..................what in the world happened to Mike Tyson? :confused:

Craig Biggio is a season ticket holder from the Astros. Also Alonzo Mourning

[gibbs4pres]

Here's some famous people that grew up in the area/live around here that I would hope are Redskins fans:

Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters Lead Singer) Was also in Nirvana
Tim Reid (Venus Flytrap from WKRP in Cincinnati)
Daphne Reid (The 2nd mom from Fresh Prince of Bel Air)
Sissy Spacek (Lives in Charlottesville, Va)
Robert Duvall

I'd have to imagine that some of them would be Skins fans???

I also believe Goldie Hawn grew up in Takoma Park.

[remaxjon]

I know Usher lived in the DC area for a while.

[MoeRedskins]

Somebody mentioned Gene Hackman being a Redskins fan. Anybody remember a pretty bad cop movie with Dan Akroid called Loose Cannons? Hackman wore a Redskins jacket throughout the movie.

I went on Netflix to find this movie and this was the description of it.

A Washington D.C. cop (Gene Hackman) teams up with a man afflicted with a multiple personality disorder (Dan Aykroyd) who speaks in the voices of Tweety Bird, Captain Kirk, Pee-Wee Herman, Ricky Ricardo and the Wicked Witch of the West. Together, they trail a gang of neo-Nazis in an attempt to capture a porno film featuring Adolph Hitler in bed with a man who's about to be elected chancellor of West Germany

As for LaVar dating Dominique Dawes, I never heard of that one, but LaVar has been known to date many women of the D.C. area. Every time he was seen in public, it seemed as though he was with a different woman.


Ahhhhh the benefits of being a NFL superstar.

[CNYSkinFan]

Isn't Lavar married. he just went on a honeymoon.

[Bigskinbauer]

nope, hes a big steelers fan
yeah huge steelers fan, he is in love with bradshaw, he saw him this year and gave him a great big bear hug for like 20 seconds

[bwparker]

I also believe Goldie Hawn grew up in Takoma Park.
Thats true, I think it was Garret Park(but same area). In fact she comes back to visit her old house occassionally. And one time she let herself in when the owner wasn't home. The owner of the house is an elderly woman who finds the visits intruisive and bothersome, she has actually complained to the police about it. :D

[Skinsfan1906]

Yeah, he's married now. I was talking about his bachelor days. I saw one of the girls he was dating at Redskins training camp back in 2002 up @ Dickinson College.

She was decent looking.....but I've dated better! :)

[thecheat48]

Ric Flair? For real?

So, we got Petty, Flair and Dale Jr.

Oh hell yeah.

[ChiefPowhatan17]

I work with Wolf Blitzer at CNN, he is originally from Buffalo NY, but seems to be a skins fan. He is always interested in Redskins talk and goes to games. Sometimes he sits in Dan's Box. So maybe he is transplant skins fan.
He played football at University of Buffalo, NY.

[sherry the moron]

wasn't richard nixon a 'skins fan ? :rolleyes:

[redwolf1218]

i sure hope Tony Stewart and Bobby Labonte are Redskins fans.

[redskin_rich]

i sure hope Tony Stewart and Bobby Labonte are Redskins fans.
I don't know about Stewart but Labonte is a Cowgirl fan.

[redwolf1218]

I don't know about Stewart but Labonte is a Cowgirl fan.
get a rope...

[becky]

Joe Gibbs, does he count?

i don't care what we're talking about.. he always counts.

[Nick86]

Mya the R&B singer is a skins fan I heard her say it on NFL total access.

[becky]

Nope, he was my dad's friend's insurance agent before he made it big, they hung out. But that was after the Colts left and before the Ravens so I don't know now, but when I lived in S. MD everybody was on the Skins. Lots of bandwagon people then (Gibbs' first tenure). But yea, Clancy is a DC guy.

Just curious, why would you think he' be a B-more guy?


i grew up in calvert county and unless i'm completely hallucinating i think clancy's kids went to the private school (calverton) about 15 minutes from my high school. most of the people i grew up with are definitely skins fans, although there is the token bandwagon ravens fan (who i of course no longer associate with :) ).

[FosterTheSkins]

I've read Jessica Alba is a Skins fan too.

[GeneralDisorder]

[BIGREDSKINSFAN1963]

Gilbert Godfried is a redskins fan too,is'nt he?:giantsuk:

I grew up in Calvert County too, Huntingtown. I went to Northern though. It sounds like you went to Calvert H.S.? Or you are a young one and went to Huntingtown H.S.

Who were those famous dudes who used come onto the field and dance before the start of the 4th quarter at FedEx...?

Am willing to bet they were redskin fans...

I was thinking the same thing yesterday. They were called the "Freaky Foursome" or something like that ;)

If we get the NFC East title, this group should be invited for an "Encore Performance" just to get the crowd riled up again.

[Rickskins76]

Alex Trebec from Jeopardy is a huge skins fan. I went to a taping of the show and during commercial breaks he would answer questions. Someone asked him who would win the Superbowl that year. I know we were awful that year, but he screamed out "THE REDSKINS!" even though he knew we werent going to the playoffs. I thought it was pretty cool.

Hmmn. Must be a reason why they're no longer throwing shapes - and a good one at that...

You don't think they followed the idiot Harbaugh's command and became Ravens (clears throat - spits) fans, do you...?

I didn't look at the year, just the month. I thought 6 months was old. lol

lol. They were the Funky Four and members of the band. I think somthing commercial like happened, maybe money or contracts or something. I have no idea if they are still in the band or what.

I suspect they are not ratbird fans lol.

You are using some dang Baltimore site for your information. I don't think they can count over there lol

You know what would be really mad - if one (or more...) of the Funky Four posted here on HR and, like, we didn't know...?

I would bet someone here knows them. Isn't someone here in the band?

I honestly didn't think of that - imagine like you're at tailgate at a Redskins game and one of of the Funky Four is there too - and you didn't know. But someone you did know at the Tailgate knew that they were there...?

That would be even madder than if they just posted on HR anonymously, imho...

Greg Garcia the writer for the (Hilarious) show "Raising Hope" is such a huge Redskins fan that the character of Burt often wears Redskins shirts on the show.
