The "skilled" positions get all of the attention. But without all those big ugly suckers on the line and in the trenches, nothing happens. When the line breaks down, skill doesn't count for a whole lot. Reference the Cowboys and the Packers in this years playoffs. Romo never stood a chance.

Emmit Smith has disappointed me. When interviewed, he has always talked about how lucky he was to have been blessed with talent and avoided injuries. I've never heard him talk about the lines he played behind or how Daryl Johnson cleared the holes that made his career possible.

I was a Linebacker who often didn't have enough sense to get out of the way when the freight train hit.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
