I’ve never been through SE DC until today. Getting lost upon exiting the city, I had to circle the RFK Stadium. In doing so, I saw a large plaque with the name __ Preston Marshall. I forgot the first name. Anyone know who he was? Not a sports buff
George Preston Marshall, former owner of the Redskins who moved them to DC from Boston.
He was very slow to integrate his team and toward the end of his ownership, Washington was really bad. It took Jack Kent Cooke and George Allen to make the franchise respectable again in the early 1970s.
