Butkus appreciation thread -

[Left Is Write]

I was just in Chicago this week, so naturally I thought of Dick Butkus. They even have a street named after him!

4. Best damn linebacker of all time, bar none.

You can throw any name at me, and there's some great ones, but none like this man. None.

These are the knees he was running on. This was taken three years before he retired.



You know when you get an award named after while you're still alive that you did something right.

Here's a great and hilarious NFL Films segment about him. The ed O'Bradovich stuff cracks me up. And watch the friggin hit on the Lion's receiver at the 5:05 mark. I have this whole bit memorized like it's a song or a favorite movie. "He was Moby Dick in a goldfish bowl." Let me tell ya, I'm a big fan. :)
