Football people are a unique breed. Im standing on the turf at Soldier Field with my dad in the freezing cold watching da Bears go through their pregame warmups, 1988. Jim McMahon is wearing a long underwear top...the kind that also covers your head and neck. He has about a three-day growth of beard and a dip of Copenhagen so big that he cant close his bottom lip. Runs up to dad and with no hello or greeting, says: If I f*ck up, say good things about me. Then runs off without another word.
