Happy Birthday Shaun Suisham

I'll have an order of backbacon and toast hold the toast

Please join us here at The Curly R in wishing Redskins kicker Shaun Suisham a happy birthday, Shaun turned 27 on the 29th of December 2008.

Shaun is originally from Wallaceburg Ontario Canada, a few miles east of the international border near Detroit. His claim to fame in high school was kicking a 58 yard field goal in the mud to win the Kent County championship in 1999. Shaun later attended Bowling Green University and was with the Steeler and Cowboys before being signed by the Redskins in November of 2006. Before game twelve of that season Shaun was activated from the practice squad and incumbent kicker Nick Novak was released. Shaun has been the Redskins kicker since and after a challenging 2008 season I hope Shaun can work it out in the offseason and get back to his 2007 form in 2009.

Happy birthday Shaun!
