[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1032529, member: 18006"] Possibly. There was one incident where he drove a car onto rarilroad tracks toforce a train that he'd just missed to stop and let him get onboard, and it seems likely to me that if he were going to drive a car in front of a train he'd use someone else's car. I know that that's what I always do in that situation. That man was certifiably, diagnosably batshit crazy. God, I'd have given anything for a chance to hang with him. He used to get drunk in his hotel room on the road, and sit on the window ledge singing to people down in the street. On one occasion, he climbed down the outside wall of his hotel to recite poetry to women on the sidewalk; another time, he panhandled Curly Lambeau in the hotel lobby for drinking money, and Lambeau told him to forget it - said he was going up to his room, and Blood should do the same, because he didn't want to talk about it again. Blood figured he just hadn't offered his best argument, and needed to make a better case. So he went up to his own hotel room, on the 8th floor just 6 feet across an alleyway from Lambeau's room, climbed out of his window, leaped 6 feet to the ledge of Lambeau's window, and climbed in to continue the discussion. Supposedly scared the hell out of Curly. This time, Lambeau saw things his way, and Blood went out and gut roaring drunk. His teammates had to fish him out of the ocean when his team was on their way to Hawaii to play an exhibition game, and he decided to climb out onto the stern flagstaff and see how many chinups he could do. Turns out he was able to do at least one fewer than he thought he could do. When he was coach of the Pittsburgh Pirates football time (later to become the Steelers), he apparently somehow misread his own team's schedule and went a game at the Rose Bowl in LA on a day the Pirates were supposed to be playing the Eagles in Pennsylvania. He didn't realize his error until one of his friends pointed to the scoreboard, showing the score of the Pittsburgh-Philadelphia game. One of his players once said, "It's the only team I've ever been on where the players had to worry about the coach's behavior more than the coach worried about the players." When his body just wouldn't hold up any longer, he dialed it back a notch and got a Master's in Economics from the University of Minnesota at age 47. Wrote a book on Mathusian economics, and was a professor or economics and history at St. John's, and even studied law while working as a clerk at a relative's law firm. What a character. That was creepy as hell, wasn't? As busy as most players usually are in training camp, he somehow found time to run around exposing himself to random women and girls all over the state of Wisconsin, at least 10 times. Thank god we nipped that in the bud and got him the hell out of Wisconsin before it got worse. That soulless monster wound up murdering and/or ****** over 100 women and girls. [/QUOTE]
