Mark VI Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs04/n...tory?id=1984482 I remember when James Lofton was inducted in the HOF, he went to shake Bednariks hand after his speech. Bednarik bitched at him for the long speech and squeezed Loftons hand as hard as he could, breaking a knuckle. Talk about combat fatigue. Just a sad story.
BRH Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Bednarik's an ass. I've seen interviews with him in the past and you're right... he's a bitter old man.
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 He could start at defensive tackle for my team. Put Tatum and Cecil at the safety positions.....now THERE is a Bermuda Triangle.
RVJ Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I just blew up that picture....that guys hands are huge !!!
Nanker Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I just blew up that picture....that guys hands are huge !!! 229009[/snapback] You know what they say... Big hands... Big gloves.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 You know what they say... Big hands... No, big dick. Bednarik sure sounds like a major one.
Simon Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 No, big dick. Bednarik sure sounds like a major one. Who knows what lurks in the mind of a crusty old Western Pennsyltuckian. Not even the Shadow. We can call him a dink all we want, but the guy is a WWII warrior and hails from an entirely different generation of Americans. He may be lacking in the social niceties we expect of people today but I appreciate his candor. And as for that pic, it doesn't do his hands justice. If you ever meet him or see him interviewed where you can see his hands, make sure you get a good look at them. They are the most mangled, misshappen group of digits you've ever seen. That's the fate of many defensive players as throughout a season you go through fingers like a crackhead goes through Chore-Boy. I've broken every single one of my fingers except for my right thumb and have had seasons where I've busted as many as 6 in less than 2 months.....
KD in CA Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Wow, what a bitter a-hole. Sad way to go through life.
stevestojan Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I think God must be backed up. . . He needs to make a call ... This guy is just a miserable prick. As Tommy McDonald said: "'C'mon, Chuck. Get over it.'"
BillsGuyInMalta Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 He is a total jackass...but he did humanity a huge favor when he almost killed Frank Gifford. Think of what we could have been spared!
