Here's Cowboys legend Bill Bates on ESPN's Gamenight talking about being a coach on Michael Irvin's 4th and Long show which begins on Spike TV on May 18th...

Bates talks special teams, 4th and Long

Bates was one of the best special teamers to ever play the game. He used to come down and launch himself into that wedge like it was the last play of his career. It was awesome!

Here's some film on Bates as a Cowboy...

Going to be a fun show even though I still say whoever wins it has no shot at playing for the Cowboys in 2009.

Bill Bates IS the man

Brutus!

 

[Woods]

That was excellent!

Really enjoyed watching that.

Maybe S Hodge can be the "new" Bill Bates on STs for us? I sure hope so.

i think the player will DC, in fact, that player might not make the cowboys roster long, but that player will show up on another NFL team's roster;

Bates is one of my favorite all time Cowboys. I remember in the 3rd grade we always tried to hit just like him:starspin

 

[Hostile]

How can you not love Bill Bates? We need someone like him again.

Stephen Hodge, take a look at that video.

 

[SLATEmosphere]

Was that Harry Kalas narrating?

And you're basing this theory on what?

Care to take a stab at who the winner will be...
