I've been on a kick of looking up childhood football heroes and Superbowls, and am finding out a lot via wikipedia. A sample:
Pound that rock. John Gruden taunted a celebratory crowd after the Bucs' Superbowl victory against the Panty Raiders with "Pound! That! Rock!" I found it humorous that no one else joined in with him, and there was a collective "huh?" in the crowd. Well, looks like the Jags thought having a catchy phrase would get them a superbowl victory - instead, it nearly cost the punter his life.
Greg Lloyd. All I remember is that he was super strong. He was fined for shoving Brett Favre 12 feet (unnecessary roughness or late hit accusation). I just remember the commentators saying that it looked like a legitimate hit, and it would be ludicrous if he was fined for just being strong. He was fined for that - but should have been fined for shoving a gun in his son's mouth because of "poor grades."
And this little ditty about Eugene the Machine:
Bronco's 2nd Second Super Bowl Victory and the Morality of Man
Now, to Eugene's credit, the 40 dollars did not include the tip, which was going to be the friendship bracelet that his 8 year-old daughter gave him on his birthday.
Bart Starr - stop spinning!
