Football
Football is a sport in which two teams attempt to score as many touchdowns as possible by transporting the football into the end zone of the opposing team. Football developed out of the British game of Rugby but became its own sport due to several rule changes in the late 19th and early 20th century. A physically demanding contact sport, collisions and tackle maneuvers are integral parts of the game of football.
The NFL, which is made up of more than 30 teams, is the professional football league in the United States. The biggest event in football is the Super Bowl, which occurs annually on the first Sunday in February. In 2008, the New York Giants beat the New England Patriots in an exciting game. But, the Super Bowl is not only about football; it's about getting together, eating snack food, and enjoying the pre-game and halftime entertainment. Whether you are a fan of the NFL, college football, or want to go to this year's Super Bowl, TicketNetwork is your source for the best football tickets around!
Washington Redskins - Team History
The Washington Redskins have a storied history that dates back as far as 1932, when George Preston Marshall was awarded a franchise that would play in Boston. The team was named the Braves for the 1932 season as they played at the home of baseball's Boston Braves. When they moved to Boston's Fenway Park the following season, the team name was changed to the more familiar Redskins. Even after winning the NFL's Eastern division championship in 1936, fan excitement for the team in Boston was lacking. So Marshall decided to move the team to Washington D.C., and give fans in the nation's capitol a chance to buy tickets to see the Washington Redskins.
George Preston Marshall was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963 and part of his legacy was his style of ownership. He was a flamboyant and innovative showman who created an official marching band and fight song for the Washington Redskins, both firsts for the NFL. He also added quarterback Sammy Baugh to the team, who helped change the game with his forward passing approach. During Baugh's 16 year career he led the Washington Redskins to five NFL Eastern division championships and two NFL championships.
Over the years few teams have seen as many great football minds as the Washington Redskins. The team has seen four Hall of Fame coaches roam their sidelines including the great Vince Lombardi who delivered the teams first winning season in 15 seasons in 1969. He died a year later from cancer. Ray Flaherty coached Sammy Baugh and others from 1936-1942 and boasted a 56-26-3 record, his winning percentage is the best in Washington Redskins history. A member of the Hall of Fame class of 2002, George Allen coached seven years in Washington leading the team to five playoff berths and the 1972 NFC championship. But perhaps the most successful coach in the team's history was Joe Gibbs, a coach who led the Washington Redskins to three Super Bowl victories. He is the only coach in NFL history to win the three Super Bowls with three different quarterbacks. Gibbs retired from the team in 1992 to pursue other interests but returned in 2004 to become the head coach once again.
