Sometimes situations call for less than Biblical adjectives, and in this article, it definately called for it. I liked the "still nervous with 2:00 minutes left, up by 3 touchdowns, and still being nervous." I have been there so many freaking times..... Love the article. Should be framed, and hung on the freaking wall.

Well...he beat Sonny Liston to become the champ...and before Sonny there was this guy I remember named Ingomar Johansen or something like that and there was Rocky Graziano and Joe Louis. Afterwards, names like George Foreman, Michael Spinks (sp?) or his brother Leon, and of course Tyson (see sig)...and then Buster Douglas shocked the world when he knocked out Tyson. Need I go on?

Larry Holmes and Ken Norton were a couple that popped into my mind, too.

Kinda like the "if I knew then what I know now" idea? Yeah I agree. But it is really strange when my son hands me his cell phone and says "look at the text message I just received". And I can read none it. :-D

yeah, man, but you need to give full disclosure on yourself.

He's a school teacher, yall. So he's around hip hop (especially in the hood he works in) happening younguns. Dome knows all that frizzle shizzle hizzle talk, and can tell Lady Gaga from Shakira, which I cant.

He's so hip he knows I'm a "noob."

A school teacher! Well that doesn't count. He's been to confernces, had special training and been in the text message bunkers so that he can read that stuff.

i was really talking about the guys immediately before and after

guys like floyd patterson who is my favorite boxer of all time, rocky marciano and larry holmes and john tate

guys like spinks....i dont think his name was michael but i cant remember what it was(leon.....i had to look it up).....were champions during ali's career

michael spinks wasnt champion until nearly 10 years after ali had retired



the point is that its much harder to think of great QBs that played during the johnny unitas era and peyton manning era because they were both so great.....players are forgotten much easier when you have to compare them to all time greats just like boxers were

that is where i fear drew's numbers and importance to the league will be forgotten
