Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bruce" data-source="post: 48984" data-attributes="member: 196">First of all, I never called Ferguson a great player -- so you analogy is full of it. It was you, a guy who watches football on TV, who called a young man who was a special team's player star and who held on to the ball on that vicious cheap shot a sissy -- that is the issue we are discussing.Second, in 2005 he suffered injuries that would have landed almost any other player on the injured reserve early in the season. Doctors had to keep insisting that he get off the field (games and practices) because he was not cleared medically. When he went down in the first Vikings game everyone was convinced he was gone for the season.<img src="http://graphics.jsonline.com/graphics/packer/img/rev/oct05/1_1023.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />BTW: he held on to that pass too.However, his toughness and dedication drove him to keep working and get back on the field -- because he loves the game and his team.Question his ability and you would engage me in a discussion of his real assets and liabilities, but to call a guy that Brett Favre says, "There's no one with a bigger heart than that guy..." leads me to retort -- if you want to see a sissy, find a tough guy who doesn't play the game and through the protection of the internet calls a player with this much heart a sissy, and than tell that guy to go look in the mirror -- there you will see your sissy.</blockquote>
