You caught me. I'm really an MUW fan in disguise. :rolleyes: I was talking about greats, as in HOF caliber of today. Sorry I didn't go back to my G-Grandfather's day in time in Oxford.
So Leon Perry led the Giants to the 1981 NFC championship game, and this is your grandfather's era???
Jim Miller was the Giants' punter is 1987. How old is your grandfather? When did he start breeding, at age 6?
Charles Stackhouse is currently a Giant, is he from your grandpappy's generation?
And, since you mentioned it, football players from the old days were the real football players. Today's players need contracts, signing bonuses, steroids, cocaine, ho's, fancy rides, Bike helmets and pads, along with lawyers, agents, ,marketing opportunities and all kinds of unnecessary crap. Today's players aren't real football players, rather they are a bunch of whiny liberal pansies like you!
Take a look back to football, either college or pro, back in the 1940s-50s. Back then players didn't need ambulances and hospitals despite the fact that the game was quite brutal. Plastics were a new technology and had not been incorporated into sports equipment, consequently players used a rubber helmet, had basically quilted padding for shoulder pads and there weren't any lower-body pads. Nonetheless they brutalized one another on the field every week during the season and when it was all over, they went back to their regular day-to-day jobs--other than football!!
Players back then were so tough they didn't even need face masks. And back then, 115 pound kickers didn't waltz out onto the field in the final 3 seconds to win the game for anybody, the games were won with solid running games, solid line of scrimmage play, tough defenses and gutsy quarterbacking.
If players back then got seriously injured, then they were screwed. They went from the $10,000 per year part-time job as a football player, back to packing meat or delivering mail that was their regular work. And no one wanted to get hurt because coaches saw injuries as a weakness.
Today's players by contrast have unions, contracts, insurance and all kinds of other pansy, whiny liberal social safety nets, including all those state of the art pads and helmets and lawyers coming out their collectivized arses. Today's players spend their offseason chasing and raping young girls, selling drugs, hangin' with Snoop Dogg, smoking pot and kowtowing to liberals like John Kerry or Saddam Hussein.
Today's players, by contrast, use all these performance enhancing substances like anabolic steroids, cocaine, PCP, ketamine and ecstacy. The NCAA players skate through their courses with fitness management and bullcrap like home-ec, along with typical liberal, hate the Marine Corps curriculum. In the meantime, players at any level spend their time lifting weights and getting ready for the season by playing Madden or EA's college football gameday on the X-Box, breaking the monotony by bangin' hot coeds. Today's players wouldn't know nothing about getting a job, except of course the late Pat Tillman.
So you may hate your grandpappy, but don't take it out on Ole Miss and New York Giants greats of the past. You may hate our president and our beautiful Marines, but hey buddy, just go back to MUW and pull for the swimming team you hopeless loser!
:D
