A little too young to fully appreciate his greatness.
Grew up with Emmitt, Barry Sanders, Thurman, Okoye, Bo.
But if you watch some old youtube clips of when 34 had the ball, man that guy was magic.
This x2.
I forgot all about Okoye.even thurman thomas.
Emmit is probably my all-time favorite.
Was a huge Charles Haley fan as well. I remember play Iing madden 92-96? And having 130+ sacks with Haley on my Sega Genesis. Lol.
Played strong safety, so I was kinda partial to guys like Darren woodson & john lynch (even got to train with john lynch back in like '98 or '99, i forget)
Also Brock marion,& of course Dion... Ken Norton, even russle maryland. (Was never a rod woodson fan... I did like Rodney Harrington though, even though he played for New England... And I hate New England)
.. And of course moose johnston,& mike alatott from the bucs. I think derrick brooks was my fav LB aside from norton, and warren Sapp fav lineman aside from haley... Zach Thomas from miami (&.spikes from the bills n of course N.Y.'s LT goes w/onsaying, sameness Singletary)...and I can't remember the other dude from miami either a tightend or a a fb with enormous hands.. Would catch everything ...parmalee maybe?)
Take back the LB pick of Norton, I gotta go with Greg Lloyd from the steelers. I'd place him on par with L.T. (even though im a Cowboy fan, obviously, &, hwbcw hate the Steelers.).... Kev Greene as well and of course Harrison.
.........I'm getting off track going off on tangents. Running down memory lane.
