No, it's Marshall. I have a close friend who was a bartender at a place that Marshall frequented a lot. Eller was into drugs. Marshall just likes to drink. A lot. From all accounts, a pretty solid guy though. I'll tell you my stories the next time we meet up.

The most interesting of the front four was Gary Larson, who went on to develop the Far Side cartoon series.

And Alan Page of course become a Supreme Court justice, casting the deciding vote that ended the recount in Florida in 2000.

I would guess there are zero willing to do that....well, maybe you....I'll be the first to call the FBI...

Keep up your snitching and you will end up like michael vick's soon to be ex-homies.

You know you would kill a pitbull for a Superbowl win in your lifetime.

That'd be cool......I saw a really rare interview on NFL network and you could tell he liked to party.

Well, we are all obvoiusly just speculating and making educated guesses on whether or not Manning has a chance to break the records that Brett should soon hold baring (god forbid) an early injury.

IMO, I think it will be very difficult for Peyton to catch Brett. Everything will have to go perfectly for him for another 8 to 9 seasons, and the greatness of Brett is his unbelievable ability to still have such a strong arm and physical presence about him at the ripe old age of 38. It is very doubtful that Manning will be able to have this same durability. He is only halfway there and is already 31. I expect him to start breaking down and losing most of his game in three years, because that is what happens to almost all players. The fact that Brett has gotten this much success this long is what makes him, in my eyes, the greatest QB in the history of the game. I don't think Manning will be able to sustain the way Brett has. It is almost superhuman the way Brett has held onto his skillset for all these years, without losing much in the process. The fact that he can rifle a 65 mph fastball at his age is unbelievable, and his uncanny ability to have eyes in the back of his head, and when tackled, be able to take the hit with minimal contact or damage. Except the first game against the Bears, when I thought he wasn't going to get up from some of those sick blows that he took. Brett is by far the TOUGHEST football player to ever put on a professional jersey, bar none. He is amazing, and Manning will have a difficult time matching his consistency for the second half of his career. I doubt he will pass him. BTW, if he doesn't, Brett could end up holding these records in a Babe Ruth or Hank Aaron sort of way. I don't see any other QB in the game today that could even come close to passing him. My belief is that Brett will have these records for decades, and go down in history as possibly the greatest of all time. If he happens to go to another Superbowl, it won't even be arguable.

Here's to Brett for three more years!!!!!!!!

Hell, he may be in the game longer than Aaron Rodgers!! Wouldn't that be cool?

Three more years ?

Amen; love that idea.

Who do we have on board to beat Favre out?

That's a really big hahahahahaha!!

Favre's our starting QB until he decides otherwise. I even believe he will show us something special given the ingredients that TT has this season.

Ham and cheese anyone??

Who's Jim Marshall?

You're going the wrong way.

I started watching football just after the Vikings glory years, so I never saw Marshall. I know for a fact that he likes to drink, he likes to drink often, and he likes to drink a lot.

He must have mentored Touchdown Tommy Kramer on drinking.
