Mark & I had the same priest marry us at our weddings.So,naturally,we started to have a discussion about Father Maurice (Yes & Father Mo was 6-4 270 huge,funny man who was a parish priest at Notre Dame). People behind behind me started screaming for me to move on & at that point Mark stood up, said "Hey,I'm talking to this man,let's be patient!" At that point complete silence entered the room-he was/is a commanding presence! We ended our conversation,he signed my mini-helmet and told me to say hello to father Mo!

Today don’t have one ounce of that toughness that those teams had everything about those teams started with being tough and physical. We may not have won a lot of games but every opponent felt a great deal of pain after the game. I been blessed to see some of the toughest NFL players ever perform for my teams Larry Csonka, LT, Harry Carson and Mark Bavaro.
Great story! When guys, were guys! :)
That's pretty funny!
Old School!!!
I only hope his book was actually fiction. It was far too dark.
