Commanders honor all-time Greats, but…

I am so glad the Washington Commanders organization is aware of the importance to recognize and honor those who have come before you, succeeded, built a brand, and brought your team great wins, great memories, and even championships and Hall of Fame players.

On Sunday, the Commanders honored many former Washington Redskins, in particular, the newest 10 added to their “90 greatest” list. Many former greats were on hand, and it was great to see fans and current members of the organization appreciative of those who had achieved so much.

Yet, I learned tonight that 1982 NFL MVP, kicker Mark Moseley, was presented his name tag with his name spelled incorrectly.

I don’t want to be a merciless fault-finder. After all, each and every one of us makes mistakes that are embarrassing. I know; I have certainly embarrassed myself too often.

Didn’t Mark Moseley play enough years (1974-1986) in the burgundy and gold that we couldn’t take 30 seconds to show him enough respect to spell his name correctly?

If it were only an occasional error, I understand, because we are all finite, limited creatures. But isn’t this entirely too often to not raise attention to the business side of the organization?

How about a simple check of each other’s work?
