Sam in Hawaii
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

and to think there were a lot of people on this board saying he should be released after that incident with the coaches against Miami...I never wavered, I knew he was just frustrated and wanted to win....I like that in a player.

It was actually against Baltimore. But you're right- after they benched him in that game, he began playing with a vengeance. The guy just had a monster season and definitely earned the trip to Hawaii (even if they needed to borrow a military cargo jet to get him there).
