I don't think that's particularly fair......not everybody has been around that long. I mean, my 15-year old nephew doesn't remember anything before Brooks and Haslett.

I do remember Carl Smith (and his godawful run-run-7 pass to Eric Martin-punt offense) but I'm not going to say I'm a "realer" fan than that kid, because he's body-painting himself head to toe every week.
