Twitter: On this date in 1987: Cowboys-Washington brawl after Danny White TD pass

Now the players only have loyalty to one thing, MONEY!!!!! It’s kind of pathetic when you think about it.

Players have always chased money. You hear the players of old talk about how they wanted the extra playoff money if they won. The difference now is players make so much that the average fan can't look down on them like they used to. So then they invent these "moral failures" that help them imagine players as less than so long as they don't compare bank accounts. Quite the mental gymnastics. Lol.

Remember they used to talk about how much money the winnng team in the SuperBowl would make vs the losing team?

i remember a shot of danny on the sidelines with eugene lockhart...who was pretending to use danny's mid-section as a punching bag.

*sigh* that was when football was played with heart.

LOL John Madden.. "I don't think I've ever seen a QB... get back, throw a TD pass and get in a fight with a middle linebacker in the same play..

Summerall " I don't think i've ever seen that, John"

I think was the scab season, tensions were high when we played those idiots at the best of times, add in the strike and ....boom(although the strike was over by this game)
