HairOnFire Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 A remarkable legacy rooted almost entirely on the offensive side of the football. Thus, whenever prodded with a sharp stick or by the sight of a bad Bengal defense we too often respond by pleading for a new TE. We are indeed the Bastard Sons of Paul Brown. No matter. A great read about a man who despite being considered a legend still doesn't get the respect he deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Good read indeed. That's not just a lot of props to Paul Brown, but the state of Ohio for producing so many accomplished NFL minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GapControl Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 thanks for posting that. really enjoyed it. can anyone trace who to attribute the other 32 superbowl victories to? paul brown gets the credit for 18.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalszoneBilly Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 It reads as if everything successful in football is within six degrees of Paul Brown. Well...almost everything. Lets start a new football version of the Kevin Bacon game!The concept is simple, but finding the smallest number of links can be difficult. The way you link a great player/coach with Paul Brown is like so:Pick any great player/coach in history. Link the player/coach you've chosen to Brown via the jobs or teams they've shared with other players/coaches until you end up with Paul Brown himself. Here is an example, using Dan Marino:Dan Marino set every passing mark known to man.He played for a Paul Brown disciple Don Shula. Therefore Dan Marino has a Brown number of 1.Now...what happened to his son Mike, I have no freaking idea. Maybe his number is too low!
