Washington Redskins Information
The Washington Redskins are a professional American football team based in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The team plays at FedExField, located in Landover, Maryland in Prince George's County, Maryland, and is headquartered and trains at Redskin Park in Ashburn, Virginia, a community in Loudoun County, Virginia near Dulles International Airport. They are currently members of the Eastern Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) in the National Football League (NFL). According to Forbes Magazine, the Redskins are the most valuable sports team in North America, valued at approximately $1.3 billion [1]. They are also the wealthiest team in the NFL generating almost $300 million in revenue per-year. They also rank #1 in average attendance per game in the NFL .
Originally called the Boston Braves, the club joined the NFL as a 1932 expansion team based in Boston, Massachusetts. One year later, the club changed its name to Boston Redskins after moving from Braves Field home of the baseball team of the same name and to Fenway Park. The name "Redskins" was in honor of their head coach William (Lone Star) Dietz who was of part-Sioux decent. The team then moved to the Washington, D.C. area in 1937.

The city of Boston, Massachusetts was awarded an NFL franchise in 1932, under the ownership of George Preston Marshall. Marshall was given the nucleus of the defunct Newark Tornadoes, which folded after the 1930 season and was sold back to the NFL.
Initially the new team took the same name as their landlords, the Boston Braves, one of the two local baseball teams at the time. When the football team moved to Fenway Park (home of the Boston Red Sox) the next year, Marshall also changed the name of the football Braves to the "Redskins", to honor their head coach and further distinguish the team from their ex-landlords.

The move to Fenway Park was unsuccessful and attendance was poor. The 1936 NFL title game, scheduled for Boston, was relocated to the Polo Grounds in New York City (the Redskins lost the game to the Green Bay Packers). Marshall decided to move the team to Washington, D.C. for 1937, retaining the name "Redskins" although it was now out of context. They shared Griffith Stadium with the Washington Senators baseball team. The team proceeded to win the league championship in their first year in DC. They also signed an innovative rookie quarterback from Texas Christian University: future Pro Football Hall of Famer Sammy Baugh. In an era where the forward pass was relatively rare, the Redskins used it as their primary method of gaining yards. "Slingin' Sammy" Baugh also played numerous other positions, including cornerback and punter.

Under threat of civil rights legal action by the Kennedy administration, which would have prevented a segregated team from playing at the new District of Columbia Stadium, as it was owned by the U.S. Department of the Interior and thus federal government property, the Redskins became the final pro football franchise to integrate, in 1962, in their second season in the stadium. First, the team drafted Ernie Davis, the first black player to win the Heisman Trophy. Then, before signing Davis, they traded his rights to the Browns for wide receiver Bobby Mitchell. This was a lucky break, as it turned out that Davis had leukemia, and died without ever playing a down in professional football, while Mitchell was still in the first half of a career that would land him in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Snyder, who grew up as a Redskins fan and who made his money in marketing, has made many controversial moves since owning the team, including offering the name of the stadium up to corporate bidders. FedEx had the highest bid, and the stadium is now named FedEx Field. The most controversial habit Snyder has practiced is the continuous hiring and firing of head coaches, first firing incumbent coach Norv Turner, firing replacement Marty Schottenheimer after only one season, and in 2002, hiring University of Florida head coach Steve Spurrier to replace Schottenheimer. After two mediocre years, Spurrier resigned after the 2003 season with three years left on his contract.

Finishing the season 10-6, they qualified for the playoffs as a wild card team. They opened the playoffs on the road against the NFC South Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday, January 7, 2006. They defeated the Bucs 17-10, after taking an early 14-0 lead, which they later seemed to have squandered until replay evidence showed that a touchdown that would have tied the game was in fact an incomplete pass. In that game, the Redskins broke the record for fewest offensive yards (120) gained in a playoff victory, with one of their two touchdowns being from a defensive run after a fumble recovery. The following weekend, they played the Seattle Seahawks, who received a bye for round one. The Seahawks defeated the Redskins 20-10, ending the Redskins' hopes of reaching their first NFC Championship Game since 1991.

After the end of the 2005 season, the Redskins were reportedly to be 20 million dollars over the salary cap. However, due to the NFL and NFL Players' Union agreement, the salary cap was raised to 102 million dollars. Due to this and the subtraction of players like 3-time Pro Bowl Linebacker LaVar Arrington, and safeties Ryan Clark and Matt Bowen, the Redskins were able to afford high profile free agents such as, Antwaan Randle El (formerly with the Pittsburgh Steelers), Brandon Lloyd (formerly with the San Francisco 49ers), Adam Archuleta (formerly with the St. Louis Rams), and Christian Fauria (formerly with the New England Patriots). Because of these solid additions, the Redskins are now among the teams considered the best in the NFC.

In the 2006 NFL Draft, the Redskins did not have a first round pick due to a 2005 trade used to acquire Jason Campbell with the 25th overall pick. However, they traded up in the second round to draft linebacker Rocky McIntosh out of the University of Miami, who seems to be the replacement for Arrington and would most likely become a starter immediately. The Redskins then used their next pick on Minnesota DT Anthony Montgomery. The rest of their picks included Northern Colorado Safety Reed Doughty, Georgia DT Kedric Golston, Arizona Guard Kili Lefotu, and Tennessee LB Kevin Simon.

Their white jersey consists of three combinations. One is the white jerseys and burgundy pants, which is considered the "classic" look. The other (and lesser known) combination is the white jerseys and gold pants, which was used in the past when they weren't wearing their burgundy jersey. The last combination consists of the all-white jerseys. That particular combination surfaced in the first game of the 2003 season on a nationally televised game against the New York Jets, which led to many sports fans and Redskin faithful alike to point out that they have never seen that particular combination. That year the Redskins wore it two more times. That look didn't appear again until midway through the 2005 season when the Redskins wore it on a road game against the St. Louis Rams. The Redskins won six games (including one in the playoffs against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers wearing that combination) and the local media jokingly pointed out that the reason why the Redskins were winning was because of the white on white combination. In the NFC Divisional Game against the eventual 2005 NFC Champion Seattle Seahawks, the Redskins wore the all white jerseys, in hopes that they could keep their luck going; however, they lost 20-10.
Although the Washington Redskins always wore their white jerseys at home, there were a couple of exceptions where the Redskins wore their burgundy jerseys at home.
