Monday, January 23, 1983; Page A1
It couldn't get much sweeter than this for the Washington Redskins. In a madhouse called RFK Stadium, they got all the revenge and respect they wanted yesterday by beating the Dallas Cowboys, 31-17, to earn their second trip to the Super Bowl.
is this the game I remember? I'd be 6 oh not even 6 yet ~ that might be too young. I seem to remember getting some play pom-poms I had (orange&black? - what are pom-poms? streamers bundled together fr handles ~) and taking them into the den study backroom where parents had people over watching. I seem to remember it being a victory over the Cowboys.
but it could be I remember the superbowl a year later -
the Redskins went in 1983 after this sweet beating of the Cowboys, and then they went again in 1984...
| XVIII | Jan. 22, 1984 | L.A. Raiders 38, Washington 9 |
| XVII | Jan. 30, 1983 | Washington 27, Miami 17 |
well they did not win in 1984 though, and on the day I remember it was all about winning, so it was either the 1983 superbowl (and still talking about the lead-in game where beat Cowboys) or that lead in game. probably it was the superbowl. and I was only 5yrsld?
