    RIP Dick Butkus

    One of the all-time greats.

    Yep. The standard for middle linebackers. Cigar and all.

    He was the standard. He used to pop up all over TV on various shows in the 70s and 80s. Lived a full life for sure.

    I always put an inspirational quote on my tests and I've used some of his before. I like this one especially:

    "I wouldn't ever set out to hurt anyone deliberately unless it was, you know, important -- like a league game or something..."

    Will

    The quintessential ‘Monster of the Midway’. He and Bronko are prolly having a scrimmage.
