    Remember those end zone dances, Annt? That was before they became big. Good ole Billy "white Shoes" Johnson. Think about what he's be doing today if he was playing, he, portis and his costumes and chad with his sidekick TO and their little acts and shows, lol.... What do you think he's up to these days? Do you know what ever happened to him after he left the game? Did he become a coach?

  Eagles fans will appreciate this one. Mike Mummula was called "moo-moo". At camp one year all the players started harrassing him and the whole team started chanting moo-moo after he got a sack. It was the most hilarious thing i have ever seen.

    It was a sad moment for me when Ditka called his number for that TD instead of giving it to Payton, he got them there. I remember ditka saying in an interview last year that that was one of his life's regrets, not giving it to sweetness. I agree, about you?

  Yea Dirty Waters...brings back memories.....
  Dean, I think a lot of the "show" is how the media pumps up the players..ala ESPN and Primetime with the nicknames and all the different national and regional coverage these days. So the players act on it. The pointing to the sky and pumping the chest all that stuff plays on the tube. It dosen't matter if you are talented or not. All you need is one play and people remember you. Just as Dabirds said 4th and 26. it will always be linked to Fred Ex. That stuff never was tolerated back in the day with players around the league, but it is a different game today.
