Quote:I read a lot of stories anout the accounts that went on down in Dallas during Jimmy's superbowl run....

 

It was FAR from "squeaky clean". Lots of stuff was kept under wraps. 

 

They had a special place (near Valley Ranch?) designated where certain team members could go and use drugs/ get hookers/ you name it....and as long as they didn't get caught (which they wouldn't if they used this place to do their stuff) , everything was fine. The cops wouldn't bother them or anything. I'm guessing "Jerruh" took care of that....if ya know what I mean....

 

Lets face it, as much as they try to portray a positive image, the NFL ain't choirboys. This isn't your church league here. 

 

I am not debating the Cowgirls atmosphere when they won the Super Bowls.

 

I am not even debating the perception of NFL players.

 

I am stating Irvin was smart enough to put down the coke (which by that time he had about 7-8 years in the league) when he saw he could be headed down a lifetime ban from the league. Blackmon is only going into his 3 season.
