Whats Florida gator fight song lyrics?

The University of Florida's fight song, "Orange and Blue" does have words! Most Gators fans know only the first line or so because it's not common to sing the words, only clap to the beat when the Pride of the Sunshine plays the song (most commonly at pre-game festivities or after a touchdown). The words are becoming more widely known though as Coach Urban Meyer has the team sing the fight song after games, along with our Alma Mater. Here are the words to "Orange and Blue": "Orange and Blue"

So give a cheer for the orange and blue

Forever Pride of old Florida

May She droop never

We'll sing a song for the flag today

Cheer for the team at play

On to the goal we'll fight our way

For Florida!

Why are the redskins and cowboys rivals?

The only reason I have ever heard is that the skins didn't want the cowboys in pro football. Somehow, the cowboys owner obtained the rights to the redskins "Hail to the Redskins" fight song and used it as ransom for the skins to agree to play them in pro ball. Don't take this as fact, though... do some more research.

Who is Mark Moseley?

Mark DeWayne Moseley (born March 12, 1948 in Laneville, Texas), is a former professional American football placekicker in the National Football League who played for the Philadelphia Eagles (1970), the Houston Oilers (1971-1972), the Washington Redskins (1974-1986), and the Cleveland Browns (1986). With the retirement of the Minnesota Vikings' Rick Danmeier in 1982, Moseley became the sole full time straight on placekicker in the National Football League. Additionally, Moseley is the only placekicker in National Football League history to win the Most Valuable Player Award; he did so in the strike-shortened 1982 season. The Washington Redskins won Super Bowl XVII, beating the Miami Dolphins 27-17. In the game, Moseley kicked two field goals and was successful on all three of his extra point attempts. The following season, he led the NFL in scoring with 161 points. In 1986, the 38-year old Moseley was released by the Washington Redskins in the middle of the season. He is their all-time leading scorer with 1,207 points. He signed with the Cleveland Browns and retired at the end of the season. Mark Moseley was successful on 300 out of 457 attempts (65%), successful on 482 out of 512 extra points attempts (94%) and scored a total of 1,382 points.

What does it mean when people say that Jamarcus Russell is the greatest NFL football player of all time?

Jamarcus Russell is an NFL quarterback and possibly, future Hall-of-Famer. He nearly ended his career by shattering a knee in the off-season. He was released from the Oakland Raiders due to a locker room controversy. He is the only quarterback in NFL history (yet) to be able to throw a football for 80 yards in the air. He can also throw a football 60 yards in the air on one knee, but not the shattered one. In 2009, he led the Oakland Raiders to one victory over the defending Superbowl Champions, the Pittsburgh Steelers. If Jamarcus Russell had not shattered his knee in the off-season and got released by the Raiders, he might very well have led the Raiders to at least one Superbowl victory. In the 2009 season, the Raiders had a real good chance to make the playoffs. However, Jamarcus Russell had a back injury.

He is currently trying out for the Washington Redskins.

The people that say that may be "fans" which is short for "fanatics", or the records may prove that statement to be true. It is difficult, however, to compare players' greatness when there are 22 different positions. I don't as yet see his image replacing the Heisman Trophy, for example.

When did Barry Gibson play for the Washington Redskins?
