keep in mind ed, those misfits you are talking about went to the s.b. in jan of 03.

And how did that work out? Seems like they imploded to me. Gannon had a great year but showed in the SB why the Chiefs discarded him. How has the team performed since then? What has been their earned draft position the two years since then? How many of that group are still on the "team?"


are there any oldtimers here who know this to be true? c'mon. i know there are some old afl guys here who remember the afl stealing players
from the nfl drafts and reappropriating them for the afl drafts. c'mon oldtimers... what was the final straw that sent al over the edge?
remember when the chiefs drafted gayle sayers and the nfl snagged him away for the nfl draft? let's be honest here......the gayle sayers deal is what motivated the afl owners to go to war.
mean old al.
This was actually before my time, very interesting stuff though!

lot's of myth's running around about al and why he is a dirty rotten so and so. you dont always here the truth when the media and the league need a bad guy. the yankees are the bad guy in baseball. all leagues have a bad guy. it makes fiscal sense and it is good social psychology.

Good Points here, he has accomplished the goal with me, I have hated him and the Raiders for 35 years now. Almost irrationally!

mean old al who went and visited dt in miami. there is another side to this "maverick" that some dont want to admit too

I must admit, that trip to visit DT did shock me. It does not fit with how he tried to destroy Marcus Allen.
