| #7 Heh - that was a fun read... memories of at least a hint of innocence and pride over paycheck. And the other certainly highlights the differences between then and now - how far they have fallen. Thx, guys! |

| #5 I'd be more of a Stallworth fan over Swanny, myself. With the Boston Celtics Kevin McHale was my favorite (with apologies to Russel, Cousy and many others), not all of it because of l'affaire Clothesline. One of the best basketball games ever played. |

| #4 That's the dude. And he was the prototype for others that followed - until the NFL cleaned things up with a mess of rules changes. Anyway, Swann was, and apparently still is, a class act in sports. I guess we'll see if the PA public agrees. I'd say he has one hell of a shot. |

| #3 Oh, yeah, now it comes back to me what a foul son of a bitch Jack Tatum is and always will be. Maybe I'm biased about what happened to Darryl Stingley, but scroll down to 9. and you be the judge. |

| #1 As an ex-Cowboy fan from the era when they and the Steelers had some great contests, this got a good laugh out of me. I don't watch sports anymore - haven't in about 25 years cuz I decided I'd rather do it than watch it. After the first blush, however, and reading the piece - hey, why not? He's an intelligent and articulate man - and one I can attest to having a serious streak for hardball heads-up competition and quick wits... there were headhunters in the secondary back then - and damned few rules protecting anyone from the likes of The Assassin (extra points if you know who carried that nick, heh). So why not, lol! Go for it Lynn! |
