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.
This shouldn't even be close.
True fans want wins, not draft picks.

Bruce is the best non-murdering player this team has ever had.

Fred is a great guy, good teammate, and if we don't give him a chance to play in the post season before he retires its quite frankly a sin. That being said Bruuuuuuce is one of the three best players this team has ever had.
Isn't there some NFL films production of NY Jets DE Hugh Douglas reacting to the play where Bruce turned Boomer Esiason's lights off by saying "Boomer's Dead?" IIRC, Bruce also gave Joe Montana a goodnight kiss in the 93 AFC title game.
