[QUOTE="reopseed60, post: 1486769, member: 746303"] Dick Butkus was a man among boys. There was nothing "phony" about him, and there isn't today. If you think you were going to get a glosse retorical presenation with platitudes, forget.. He is who he is. A great football player who gave the university everything he had every game. I was at the university when he played, and we always said,there never was a running back who fell forward on a Dick Butkus tackle. He is "Southside Chicago and will always be,and proud of it.
