RoyBatty is alive Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 I can't even remember what the issue was, some petty spat with Ralph?
PromoTheRobot Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 I can't even remember what the issue was, some petty spat with Ralph? Cookie probably had CTE related issues which made him very angry at everyone. He wanted nothing to do with the Bills because he thought he was underpaid.
oldmanfan Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 From what I recall the issue for years was that Cookie wanted to be paid to come back and be in the Wall ceremony, and that ticked Ralph off. Plus Cookie despite his talent was a pain to deal with in his playing years, and Lou finally had a fit and got rid of him. God to see he'll be on the Wall. He certainly is one of the best to have played in a Bills uni.

YoloinOhio Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 Well deserved and overdue. Lookie lookie lookie, here comes Cookie! sadly that quote will always remind me of Rex from now on
bilzfancy Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 A bit of a head case and a me player but still one of the best RBs ever

Shaw66 Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 If you don't know Cookie, go watch the video on BuffaloBills.com. The guy was one of the best running backs of all time.
4_kidd_4 Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 Well at least they're milking the 60's instead of the 90's for a change.
Nanker Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) Long overdue. Congrats, and RIP. He was a punishing runner. He'd beat the hell out of the defense. A little Cookie anecdote from Paul Maguire. Edited August 30, 2017 by Nanker
