I liked the swag of the old Oakland Raiders and Houston Oilers, but I never liked the result they did to a player like the breaking the nose of Russ Francis or the paralyzing of Darryl Stingley.

People might like the image of the mafia, but never the actual murders of the mob. Teams can call themselves "Pirates", but never really like true Pirates, whether it be Pirates of today or yesteryear.

Speaking of Harrison, recall the stir after he said something to the effect that "he wants to hurt people"...

Imagine all the panties in knots if he would have said something like this:

"...you got an angle on him, he should go to the hospital, and that is exactly what I tried to do..
.no remorse in my heart, I tried to put him in the hospital every time I tried to tackle him...
so every time he came over I tried to tear his damn head off"
