    Because they got the team off to a 4-0 start, with all of those wins against division opponents, and they won the division by 4 games? and the scabs who made the roster after the strike, based on their ability shown during those 4 games, received rings.

    They're fucking scabs, fuck them.

    Well the wins still counted, and they got in the playoffs because of them. If they go 0-4 and don't make the playoffs, there are no rings for anyone.

    Would have been a pretty challenging fantasy football year for sure.

    Jack Kent Cooke came off as a completely miserable bastard. And he's still the best owner the Skins have ever had by a country mile.

    That may be one of the funnier/truer statements I have ever read on this site

    The wideout Allen got a ring because he caught a pass in the NFC title game but, unless I misheard, rings weren't given to every guy who made the roster after the strike.

    Which amounts to giving rings to players cut in preseason. The players cut in preseason had more integrity then these pieces of shit.

    I suppose because the great majority were never going to stick around, these guys were just "replacement players." But it's still not right to cross a picket line. As JC said, they're scabs.

    I thought it was telling that the veteran players in the film now say those guys should have rings. Thirty years adds a lot of perspective. That, and the Dallas win was pretty damn big.

    In 1985, Neil Lomax came to my school and talked about character and how his faith carried him to the NFL.

    In 1987, Neil Lomax called the middle-school me a "piece of shit" as my mom and I walked into Saints-Cardinals at Busch Stadium for the scab game.

    Did 87 Lomax do something to contradict 85 Lomax?
