BengalPimp Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Ok, I guess somebody has to be serius in this post. We need a lot of help at many positions, but the LB's have actually played pretty well. We need RB's, OL, DL, a healthy QB, healthy & committed WR's, well you get the point...LB is not a major need for us right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregstephens Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 An ex-Viking LB. So, what with our Danish and Norwegian roots - not that off-topic for these here parts really.I actually figured once we strayed off on Napoleon Bonaparte, all bets were off, not that that detour was unforseen. Who names their kid Napoleon anymore anyway?What about that Napoleon Dynamite kid? HAH thats 3 people greg.Don't forget about the original NFL Napoleon--Kaufman. He had a good year for the Raiders in '97--almost 1,300 yards rushing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Wasn't Kaufman the guy who's leg was gruesomely wrenched the wrong way, destroying every ligament in that knee (along with a few of my brain cells that tried to process that horror show)?

In his six seasons, he played at least 13 games in each. Wiki says he retired to become a minister. Didn't mention any injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the one I was thinking of that went to Navy and had to deal with that while playing. He's the one that broke his leg. He's from Milford, OH and High School, btw.
