A lifelong Redskins fan, I have been writing poetry in support of my team!
The only way I can justify watching the games this season, for 3+ hours per week, is to use what I see on the TV to fuel my writing.
This blog post is my directory of Redskins Poems. Each listing is a clickable link that will allow you to view the entire poem.
January 2016 UPDATE: The site where my Redskins poems were originally posted has been shut down. The poems are archived off-line and are being retrieved. As this time-consuming process unfolds, each obsolete link will be replaced. They will remain here and a new message will announce when you can view them. The video is the only link that still works. Enjoy!

I posted my video really early in the morning on the day of the Season Opener (Monday, Sept. 9th 2014).
A few hours later, a new follower showed up on my profile:
I am regularly surprised by non-Redskins fans who have taken the time to read and write to me about my poems.
If you think that is amazing, look at this. I didn’t know that my beloved “twin-sister” (from another mister), whom I’ve known since we were very young, was raised in a Cowboys home! She is friendly and loving, she will not harm anyone allied with the Redskins. Her husband is a Redskins fan!
I asked her to share my poems with him, but she shared them with everyone on her Facebook wall!
Poem 6 was retweeted by a news anchor at Washington’s #1 radio station.
All poems and musical compositions posted here are the original creations of Cheryl Crockett.
