I enjoyed reading this.. You might too.


"I like [the Packers]. If they get to 10-0, which they probably will, I'm going to send [quarterback] Aaron Rodgers one of my CDs," said Morris, a 1,000-yard rusher during the perfect season who has written a song about it he'll gladly sell you for $19.72. "I have nothing but good things to say about the Packers. If they [end up] in our neighborhood, they're a credit to the sport. They don't have a bunch of guys out there who view themselves as entertainers.

"I didn't like the way [the Patriots] came across [four years ago]. They thought it was just a formality [finishing 19-0] … They were too much in your face. They wanted you to bow down to them and kiss the king's ring."

I love how Morris basically worked an ad for his CD in an article about how the Packers are shooting for a perfect season. Clever, Morris. Very clever.

I'm getting more and more sold on Bulaga. Bryan just looks right next to Sitton on the right side.

I'm thinking 🇹🇹 will go D-line early during the next draft. Raji and Pickett have looked completely wiped out this year. We need to prolong those guys careers as long as possible.

I don't think for a person who played football since they were a kid is at all sad to have their most important thing being the only team to go undefeated in the NFL. Not at all. If you're naive enough to think that feat was more important than their children being born, being married, etc .. you're the sad individual, not him.

If the defining moment, the high-water mark, of your life was something that happened back in the 1970s and in your mind, that overshadows all of the human element of your life since then, I find that sad. I don't care if you won the Nobel Prize -- if you haven't accomplished something meaningful in 40 years since, you've lived a pretty empty life as far as I am concerned. Cachet only lasts so long.

I do agree with you if he is saying that achievement exceeds children being born, be it son/daughter or grandchildren. I think those are crowning moments in anyone's life. I suppose I have lived a pretty empty life since the last child born to me was 8 years ago and I feel that as a crowning moment in my life.

Stating the obvious- that is your opinion and mine is that it is still sad. Although non's pointing out of the Patriots losing was his second most important is very close.

However, you can't say that your opinion is logic when it is just as much opinion as mine or non's. Although I don't share in the view of something recent taking greater importance than an event that occurred years earlier.

Basically, what this guy said reminded me of a verse,(just so you can see where I was coming from)1 Peter 1:24-25.

I feel it's short sighted to take a comment and brandish such a broad stroke over someones life that they never met or even know in person. In my opinion, that's very weak and short sighted.

Obviously, I'm ignorant to the person's full context, but I feel he was referring to professionally speaking the most important thing was the '72 season. The mentioning of the Patriots losing being the 2nd most important thing ... well ... personally my feeling is anytime something bad happening to someone else is something of great importance to you is awful. Maybe I was raised wrong, but I was always raised to hope for the best for others and raise yourself above, rather than push others down to give the illusion you are above.

In other words, be great by being great, not try to be great by others failures or shortcomings.

Surprised so many were reaching beyond his statement. Perhaps he meant it was the greatest thing in his life EVER, but I somehow doubt that.

Based off his quote I'd say it is a greater assumption by you saying that it is the greatest thing in his professioanl life compared to his entire life. At the same time I can see where you think that is what he meant. I hope you're right and I'm wrong in this case though.

Taking a look at Morris' life, being on that 14-0 team may just be the high point.

After his football career ended, he ended up going to prison(drug related if I remember correctly), then struggled to get his life back together after serving his time.

I do think it is pretty silly that every year The 74 Dolphins throw a little party when there are no more undefeated teams, but they started the tradition way back when and have the right to do so until another team joins them.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
