I agree only one "Silverback" and he's the one in Black and Gold!!!

Unleash the real Silverback and let's get ready for some Steeler Football!!!

He's an offensive lineman (not so glamorous a position), plays for the Redskins (an awkward team) and James "Silverback" Harrison (Big Silverback) has already been made famous with that name. "Little Silverback" doesn't stand a chance...

What also is interesting that former Georgetown Head coach John Thompson some how finds the term RACIAL, and negative towards Black people,,,and stated as much. But, he WORKS for the " REDSKINS " radio netwaork,,,and doesn't have a problem with that word :huh:

Oh well, Silverback will just have to show him who's the real deal on friday. I pity John Beck. Or was it grossman? Or Kellen Clemens....

oh who cares, they are a mess anyway

as for it being a racial nickname- grow up!
