  1. Or Todd Christensen, Russ Francis, Mark Bavaro, Mark Chmura, Pete Metzelaars, Tony Gonzales, Todd Heap...

     

    I'd much rather have friggin' Lonnie Johnson than any of those guys.

     

    Or even a Jay Novacek for that matter, the Cowboys never did ANYTHING with him.

  2. Great story. I didn't know that Lafontaine competed in and finished the Ironman triatholon. That's pretty impressive. My cousin Katie has met a lot of the good guys like Pat Lafontaine and Rob Ray since she was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2001, and what those guys do for the children in WNY goes beyond anything that I could possibly type out on here.

     

    In Buffalo, he's also remembered for being part of the phenomenal combination with Alexander Mogilny in 1992-93. LaFontaine had 53 goals and 95 assists that season for 148 points, while Mogilny had 76 goals and 51 assists for 127 points.

     

    Man, that was an awesome season! Hockey used to be great.

  3. I could probably count on my hands how many times I've seen guys carried off the field in a stretcher in between all the NFL, NHL, MLB, college and high school sports I've watched...it's funny how often it happens in soccer though, especially when the guy makes the miraculous recovery to come back into the game.

  4. I'm always surprised (impressed? embarassed?) by the number of Zubaz pants that I see when I attend Bills games.

     

    I still have a pair stashed away in the closet. I can never bring myself to throw out my old Bills stuff...I have a tshirt from the super bowl in Pasadena with Thurman, Beebe, Andre and Talley on it. Talley has what looks like a hybrid of a mullet and a jerry curl. :o
