Oh no...

I'm not seeing it anywhere else.

Butz. One of the rare men I've run across in my life I unabashedly admired and viewed as a standard to which to aspire.

Godspeed, David.

I finally gave up on ES because TK banned me for following the rules. The rule had always been to type out bad words and let the filters handle it. I typed out BS. Apparently, in quotes the filter didn't work. TK banned me. I would have come back, but I didn't like the idea of clicking the link acknowledging my error. I'm comfortable apologizing if I screw up. I'm fine with being banned if I do wrong. Seemed to me after so many years of being a good citizen it just felt like too much. Maybe petty, but there it is. (let me know if I should delete this.) No one really needs the backstory.

One of the greats. Such an important fixture of the glory years. Everyone remembers the Hogs, but Grant and Butz were a wall.

You're good, burgold. We generally avoid talking about "other sites" (and would like to continue that) but in context like this it's fine.

RIP Dave Butz

A fixture on defense in my youth.

Will always remember Summerall and Madden talking about how big Dave’s helmet was.

Madden: They say his head weighs 10 lbs.
Summerall: How do you weigh someone’s head John?

Godspeed, David.

He is another one who should be in the Hall.

I'm still amazed at his starting 191 games as a DT (in an era of the 14 game season) and only missing 4 games due to injury in his career.

Man, the Madden comments about Dave Butz were absolutely classic and endeared you (as a skins fan) to Madden and Butz even more. Stuff like how when he was born, he was already a huge baby, like 2 feet tall. I think he said something like that too.

This may sound petty - but this is the kind of shit I can’t stand about the current ‘culture’ … You have a huge potentially season-turning game on Sunday which should be your only focus, and you are spending time on photo ops and bullshit ‘community outreach’?

The military hero-worship BS iany going to make me feel better if we get trucked by the Vikings Ron. Get your ****ing head in the game. Can you imagine Belichick spending precious time on stuff like this ahead of a big game?

 

[MikefromOH]

Personally I hate being thanked for my service. It makes me uncomfortable and the military did more for me than I ever could for it.

You're 100% right, too. We need to be going over final preparations, getting ourselves ready for war, and packed up. This shit is just Ron being Ron.

Dave Butz was a giant of a man. A great player, a great teammate, and a great representative of the Redskins organization.

RIP 65.

I know he can do more than one thing at a time - I get that. He and others in the org just seem way too focused on image and PR as opposed to the job at hand.

Rivera would be a very good face of the organization as a president or something ceremonial centric.

The problem is that he is not a very good coach, talent evaluator, or roster builder.
