RandolphScott Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Nope. todays NFL is much more advanced. Those players would require much better work ethics. So what your saying is that someone like...Johnny Unitas couldn't play in today's NFL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorBanksCarsonVanPelt Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Thats exactly what I was gonna say. I love Phillipi, know him personally. But I wouldnt put him as the 1st choice for a DB. And as much as I love Osi, not yet at DE. You guys remember Mark Collins and what was his name Mark Haynes....they were two of the best we had in the 80's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYG Hampton 27 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 How did i leave rodney off my list?! My favorite Giant ever. Crazy I forgot to put him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeMesiS Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 So you know how the Giants wouldn't let him retire as a Giant, correct? Because of what he did when they signed Kerry Collins? What did he do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGBLUE01 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Especially since Emlen Tunnel, Jimmy Patton, Dick Lynch have 160 int between them. Exactly, so, even though Sparks is right up there with 27, I just gotta say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandolphScott Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 What did he do? When Collins was signed he was assigned a locker next to Sparks. Remember, this is soon after Collins was released by 2 teams in a matter of weeks because of his drinking and the fact he called Mushin Muhammed the "N" word and other things like that. So Collins signed, Sparks MOVED his stuff into a different locker....then without words being said Charles Way moved into Sparks old locker. Sparks wanted to retire a Giant, and the Giants told him no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
