YouTube via Deadspin, your former Special Teams and Wide Receiver coach:

Some Things You Can't Unwatch (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7wwKzijVns)

Number 21 in your program and no longer number one in your hearts.

Lyrics you ask? OK...

Hollywood Handsome
Dodge City tough
You throw it my way
and its gonna get rough
I like to Ram it
as you can see
Nobody likes rammin' anymore than me

The Marketing Department would likes its budget back, please.

Back when he coached the special teams few people I talked to knew he was a great player for the Rams and a great wishbone QB in college. I used to watch the dude on TV when he played for Kansas in the mid-70's.

There are 23 QBs and 7 safeties in the HOF. If they ever gave the position it's due Cromwell would be in.

Funny how ideas seem like good ones at the time.......................

That was painful to watch, especially for any L.A. Rams fans.

They got rammed when the team went to St. Louis.

They sure did. I called them the LA Rams for 10 years after that just out of habit.

He was a great player.

But, it's the Hall of Fame, not the hall of great.

There are really 8 safeties. Mel Renfro was a corner and a safety.

2 Packers, Wille Wood and Emlen Tunnell.

Cromwell? Helluva safety, but not a Hall of Famer.

You know I might just have a dirty mind, but for some reason I feel like there's some kind of sexual suggestion in this song. I'm kidding, you could use this as the soundtrack for some old seventies porn.

Maybe the Packers should come out with "Pack It", Barnett has some extra time to spend in the recording studio.

Quote on

Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way

I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way,
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way"

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!


Yes, it was my way

Quote off

Nolan "took the blows"?
