Coach Ditka vs a hurricane. And before you answer, the hurricane's name is hurricane Ditka.

I like Ditka as a commentator. I don't know shit about him as a football player because I'm not 70.

As far as a coach...ehhhh....Seems like that was Buddy Ryan's Super Bowl win, and Ditka's teams didn't do shit after Ryan left. Ditka's reign in New Orleans was an embarrassment.

None of this means anything.

Ditka is awesome.

I wonder what he has to say about Adrien Peterson's arrest.

It's Adrian. I don't know what he would say. i bet he knows AD and would give him the benefit of the doubt like most people who know him, until the truth comes out.

Mike's probably like most realists. He wonders how you can resist arrest with no original arrest. Where's the original charge?

Ditka should have taken a lap before the '91 season. People were tiring of his act for 2 or 3 years up to his imminent firing. That said, he's easily as popular here still as Jordan if not more. People love him because he's like us, somehow.

The players ended up hating him. Kinda' weird for a player's coach.

They also talked about how he is with fans. A few people said they've never seen a more famous person so nice fans.

Rich Republicans have a way of convincing people of that. It's endearing.

Levi can't live unless he derails this thread. first he went team rival, now it's his it's ability to TRY to turn anything political.

Meathead, he's nothing like you. People actually like him.

I love the way you lose your shit when I "go political."

Get a grip, Archie. There's like 6 regular readers in the Locker Room, pretty tough to "derail" a thread here.
