Always had mad respect for Joe. Seems like a cool guy.

Thats a true legend of the game..Hard to believe that he was a 5th round pick ..Took some of the most brutal hits I have ever seen and never whined about it either..Thanks for sharing Sgal

Much as I hate the 49ers and a large portion of their legion of (mostly) idiot bandwagon fans, it's hard to not like Joe Cool. The dude is a class act. I'd want a picture with him if I met him.

Actually, he was a third rounder. Worst part about it is, the Hawks owned the pick (3rd round, 26th pick, #82 overall in 1979) and dealt it to San Francisco.

:roll: 99% of my FB friends are people I have met in real life. If you would have read my original post you would know(see the red typing)She used to live next door to us and is the ex girlfriend of my step son. A super nice young lady who is still my friend.

I mean this in a light hearted way, but that photo looks like a couple who went to prom platonically and wanted every one to know they were there platonically.

It does look like there is a specific no touching clause. I cant work out if it's to protect Joe or if it's because he can be a bit "handsy".

Even worse is that the Seahawks were rumored to be interested in interviewing Bill Walsh, but Paul Brown had lied to them. Montana was Walsh's pick...so the 80's/90's could have been *this close* to looking entirely different in our favor. I loved Chuck Knox/Krieg...but they weren't Walsh/Montana.

Yeah, Paul Brown spent most of the 70's torpedoing Bill Walsh's career, from what I heard. Dick move.

Correct.

SF probably lucked out on Walsh because he was at Stanford.
