Summary of Then Gibbs Said to Riggins: The Best Washington Redskins Stories Ever Told (The Best Sports Stories Ever Told)

When George Preston Marshall moved the Redskins from Boston to Washington, D.C., following the 1936 NFL season, he never could have imagined they would someday become one of the most famous and celebrated franchises in all of sports. Recognized today as one of football's most valuable and accomplished teams, Redskins legends like Sammy Baugh, Joe Gibbs, Art Monk, and John Riggins have become synonymous with football excellence.

"Then Gibbs Said to Riggins..." chronicles more than 70 years of the greatest Redskins stories ever told, from the team's early beginnings to the Daniel Snyder-owned squad of today. Written and compiled by Jim Gehman, "Then Gibbs Said to Riggins..." gives you an insider's view of the most important people and moments in Redskins history; sheds new light on the lives and careers of Joe Theismann, Dexter Manley, and Joe Jacoby; and goes inside the coaching regimes of George Allen and Joe Gibbs. Also included is an exclusive audio CD featuring a play-by-play broadcast of the 1972 NFC Championship Game between the Redskins and Tom Landry's Dallas Cowboys.

Even Redskins fans who know their team inside and out will find something new within the pages of "Then Gibbs Said to Riggins...". Get the true story behind the return of Joe Gibbs in 2004, the franchise's frustrating quest to return to the Super Bowl, and everything else that makes the Redskins their city's favorite team--now and forever.
