April 10, 200817 yr Author comment_35492 Good deal! Mad Lith After reading Papa Bear I looked up & read a bit on Hill. The link for the Kavanaugh I gave is a link to the Clan Kavanagh website. I'm a Kavanagh so I read a bit on him too. Looking to get his book too The Humility of Greatness Report
April 10, 200817 yr comment_35494 You could probably make a case for Jimbo Covert, Jay Hilgenberg and Dave Duerson in there. I'd probably take Butler over Gould too. Report
April 11, 200817 yr Author comment_35512 I'd happily swap Bortz for Covert! Hilgenberg was a must until I read more about Turner... I love Duerson too. But I felt Borwn and Plank were more than worthy. Heck, even Fencik is up there. You could probably make a case for Jimbo Covert, Jay Hilgenberg and Dave Duerson in there.

Dave Duerson's wife, Alicia Duerson at the after the Superbowl party went to Buddy Ryan and thank him for for all he had done to make her husband a better player..Ryan snapped "he wouldnt have played a minute if Todd Bell had been here",he turned on his heels and left Alicia shacking her head at his rudeness.I never liked Ryan,IMO he was a big headed twat.

April 11, 200817 yr Author comment_35516 Then again, didn't Duerson get nailed for beating his wife? Ryan was a jerk...but a damn brilliant one.

April 11, 200817 yr Author comment_35581 I read Singletary's book not too long ago and evern Ryan was a big jerk to him... But at the end, he had gained respect. I look at Ryan like an old fashioned drill sargeant... Hard to love, easy to respect. Agree. Ryan will never win any social graces award! Report
