NFL EXTRA Week 21 Segment TRT Hog’s Roast 15:10 02:14:09 HOGS ROAST ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A FOOTBALL DYNASTY MADE UP OF HOGS, THE FUN BUNCH, AND THE NATIONAL DEFENSE. WHOO‐EEE! WHERE’S RICKY SANDERS? IT WAS A FRANCHISE THAT OVER THE COURSE OF 10 SEASONS, WENT TO 4 SUPER BOWLS AND WON 3. YOU’RE WATCHING HISTORY. THIS IS HISTORY IN THE MAKING! RECENTLY, EVERY MEMBER OF THOSE TEAMS WAS INVITED TO A REUNION HOSTED BY THEIR HALL OF FAME COACH. COACH GIBB CUT ME AGAIN? I THINK OUR ERA THERE KIND OF GETS LOST SOMETIMES. THAT WAS 4 SUPER BOWLS AND YOU DON’T HEAR IT REFERRED TO VERY OFTEN. AND DURING THAT PERIOD IT WAS WON WITH DIFFERENT TEAMS AND DIFFERENT STYLES. IN 82 IT WAS A GROUND ATTACK, POWER FOOTBALL BUILT AROUND JOHN RIGGINS AND ……. Page 1 of 11 AND THE RIVER…..HE’S GOT THE FIRST DOWN AT THE 40. HE’S GONE. THE 35, THE 30, THE 20. HE’S GONE. TOUCHDOWN WASHINGTON REDSKINS. THEN AT THE END, YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT 3 WIDE OUTS, A WIDE OPEN PASSING SYSTEM GOT A MAN WIDE OPEN, IT’S CLARK, TOUCHDOWN WASHINGTON REDSKINS AND YOU WON WITH 3 DIFFERENT QUARTERBACKS. YOU KNOW, JOE THEISMAN, DOUG WILLIAMS AND THEN MARK RIPPEN AT THE END. I AM IN A STATE OF ESCTASY. NEVER MIND THAT NONSENSE ABOUT EUPHORIA AND SO ON. IT IS SHEER, UNADULTERATED, UNCOMPROMISING ESCTASY. ONCE ALL THOSE GUYS WERE IN THE ROOM, IT JUST WAS AN UNBELIEVEABLE FEELING OF JOY. IT WAS FUNNY TO SEE WHERE GUYS ARE, YOU KNOW, MENTALLY, PHYSICALLY, EVERYTHING. ARE YOU GETTING TALLER? BOY YOU LOOK GOOD. LOOK LIKE YOU PUT ON A COUPLE POUNDS, THAT’S TRUE. YOU KNOW, DOUG WILLIAMS IS NOW THE HEAD COACH BACK AT GRAMBLING. MARTIN MAYHEW OBVIOUSLY WITH THE DETROIT LIONS. WHAT ARE YOU DOING NOW? HA HA WHAT IS HE DOING? MAKING US ALL LOOK GOOD MAN. Page 2 of 11 MURPH’S RUNNING THE NFL NOW. HEY THANKS FOR COMING MAN. MY PLEASURE. YOU DOING GOOD? WE’RE HANING IN THERE MAN. 02:16:41 THE REUNION BOASTED SOME FAMILIAR NAMES. (“ARTHUR MONK”) BUT NO ONE MADE AN ENTRANCE LIKE JOHNNY THOMAS. WHAT’S UP, WHAT’S UP? ……………..WHAT’S UP CHARLES? HEY MAN…………….I SAW YOUR NAME ON THE LIST AND I SAID, AWWWW GIVE ME A CHANCE TO SEE FRYS. JOHNNY THOMAS WAS A DEFENSIVE BACK DARRELL GREEN TOOK UNDER HIS WINGS AND WE ALL LOVE. THIS IS GOOD, THIS IS GOOD MAN. THE FUNNIEST THING I THINK ABOUT WHEN I THINK OF JOHNNY IS HIS FEET. JOHNNY HAD THE MOST HORRIBLE LOOKING FEET. HEY IS THERE ANYTHING IN THE MEDICAL PROFESSION CAN DO ANYTHING FOR UGLY FLAT FEET? HA HA. THEM’S THE UGLIEST FEET IN THE WORLD. LOOK AT ROLLO. ROLLO LOOKS LIKE A WASHINGTON REDSKINS TOURIST. IT’S A BIG BOYS CLUB AT THE END OF THE DAY AND WE DID PICK RIGHT UP WHERE WE LEFT OFF. Page 3 of 11 HEY MAM‐CAN YOU PUT A STOOL SOFTENER IN HIS? HA HA HA. THAT’S THE BEST THING ABOUT BEING A FOOTBALL PLAYER. YOU DIDN’T HAVE TO GROW UP FOR A WHILE. YOU GOT TO BE A KID. MOSES LOCKER WAS THAT FIRST ONE ON THE RIGHT. HE WAS SO PROUD OF HIMSELF HE HAD TWO BIG MIRRORS ON THE FRONT. AND THAT’S WHEN HE HAD THE PERM. AND HE’D SIT THERE DOING HIS HAIR IN A PAIR OF SPEEDO UNDERWEAR. I DON’T KNOW IF YOU GUYS REMEMBER THIS OR NOT. WE’D GO ON THOSE TRIPS AND MY GREATEST FEAR WAS RIGGINS. HOWEVER HE GOT THOSE BEERS ON THE PLANE I DON’T KNOW. BUT REMEMBER HE WOULD START IN THE BACK AND IF HE GOT HAMMERED HE’D START AT THE BACK AND YOU’D HEAR THAT (GROWLING NOISE) AND I WOULD START TELLING BURL AND THOSE GUYS, CAUSE I SET UP FRONT, GO BACK THERE‐STOP HIM. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? CAUSE I DIDN’T WANT TO SEE HIM UP THERE. AND SO YOU’D HEAR (GROWLING NOISE) HE’S COMPLETELY SHOT AND I’D SAY MAKE SURE SOMEBODY DRIVES HOME. WE CAME BACK FROM SEATTLE, THIS IS FOREVER, SO I GET TO THE OFFICE AND WE GO INSIDE TO PUT OUR STUFF UP AND EVERYTHING, AND THEY WALKED IN THERE TO ME AND THEY SAID YOU’RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS. AND I SAID WHAT? AND THEY SAID D‐BOY, WHO’S HALF CRAZY, IS DOWNSTAIRS AND HE AND RIGGINS ARE LIFTING WEIGHTS AND ALL THEY GOT ON IS RIGGINS’ COWBOYS BOOTS AND HE HAS TENNIS SHOES. AND THEY SWORE THAT D‐BOY WAS STANDING ON TOP OF THE MACHINE (PUMPING ARM MOTION). EVERY NIGHT WAS AN OPEN MIKE. AND EVERY NIGHT JOE STOLE THE SHOW. 02:19:08 THE REUNION PLAYED OUT LIKE A COMEDY CENTRAL ROAST – WITH EMBARRASSING STORIES AND IMPERSONATIONS. Page 4 of 11 SO I CALL BACK DOWN TO THE SECRETARY AGAIN AND I WENT LIKE THIS, I WENT, AH YES IT’S JACK KENT COOK AND I’M CALLING FOR DR. KNOWLING. I SWEAR, 2 MINUTES LATER IT WAS, HEY MR. COOK, HOW YA DOIN! SO TIMMY SMITH, LET ME TELL YA, BETWEEN GEORGE AND TIMMY I HAD BEADS OF SWEAT THAT BIG. HERE WAS TIMMY AT SUPER BOWL IN SAN DIEGO; HE GOES LIKE THIS‐NOW WHICH WASY DOES HE GO RUNNIN? SEVENTY. THEN HE GOES, OH AND DOUG, DOUG, DO YOU REMEMBER YOU HIT HIM ON THE ASS MAN? DOUG TURNS AROUND‐BAM! I THOUGHT HE WENT ABOUT 50 YARDS WITH IT TOO. 02:19:00 THE MEMORIES CAME FLOODING BACK. AND SO DID A VERY SPECIAL SONG. OH MY GOD‐NO THEY DIDN’T. WHAT’S THAT? IT’S WHEN WE DID A MUSIC VIDEO KIND OF SORT OF. YOU’RE ABOUT TO WITNESS SOMETHING YOU HAVE NEVER WITNESSED BEFORE. OH GOD. IT AIN’T PRETTY FRED. IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME. THIS THING, I’LL NEVER LIVE IT DOWN. I DON’T QUITE THINK YOU COULD CALL IT DANCING. WE CALLED IT DANCING BUT I DON’T THINK YOU WOULD CALL IT DANCING. IT’S JUST A HORRIBLE VIDEO. Page 5 of 11 EVERYONE LAUGHING. 02:21:24 COMING UP… LAMAR WAS CRAZY. HE’D LOOK AND SAY HEY ROOKIE. WON’T GO FAR ON LEAPIN LAMAR. LET’S HIT IT ROLLIN NOW. LET’S EARN THIS THING TODAY. NOTHING GETS AWAY FROM US. LET’S EARN IT TODAY OK. IT’S OUR TURN RIGHT HERE. LET’S GET THIS THING. THE REDSKINS UNDER JOE GIBBS WON 3 SUPER BOWLS. AND THOSE WHO STARRED IN THAT ERA STILL HOLD ALL OF THE TEAM’S MAJOR RECORDS. THEISMANN IN PASSING. RIGGINS IN RUSHING. GREEN IN INTERCEPTIONS. MOSELEY IN POINTS. MANLEY AND MANN ARE 1 AND 2 IN SACKS. AND MONK, TAYLOR, AND CLARK ARE 1, 2 AND 3 IN RECEIVING. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE CATCH BY GARY CLARK. AT THE CENTER OF IT ALL, THEN AND NOW, WAS GIBBS. A HEAD COACH WHO EMPHASIZED UNITY AND A LOVE OF COMPETITION. OK TOMORROW WHEN WE GET OVER THERE WE’RE GONNA DIVIDE INTO 2 GROUPS. WE HAVE THE POKER GROUP, THEY’LL GO IN THEY GOT PIT BOSSES AND EVERYTHING. THE GOLF GROUP IS GONNA HAVE A LONG DRIVE CONTEST, WE’RE GONNA HAVE A CLOSEST TO THE HOLE CONTEST AND WE’RE GONNA HAVE A PUTTIN CONTEST. AND THE FIRST THING I TOLD EVERYBODY WHO WAS WORKING WITH US, I SAID, THESE GUYS WILL CHEAT OK. LET’S JUST GET THAT OUT IN THE OPEN! AND PARTICULARILY WHEN IT’S FOR MONEY! I KNOW THIS GROUP. Page 6 of 11 JOE MADE IT AN EVENT THAT WAS FUN AND IT WAS ABOUT JUST US BEING TOGETHER. PUT THE RING ON THE TABLE. LAUGHING. HEY WE GOT RING ON THE TABLE NOW. 02:23:07 THESE REDSKINS WERE GREAT…. AT FOOTBALL. HOW IN THE HECK? I STILL THINK THAT 91 TEAM, YOU LOOK AT THAT YEAR, OFFENSE & DEFENSE AND SPECIAL TEAMS WERE RANKED IN THE TOP 3. I DON’T THINK MANY TEAMS HAD THAT TYPE OF THING GOIN ON OVER THE YEARS. I WOULD LIKE IT IF THERE WERE A WAY TO PUT THAT 91 TEAM AGAINST THE 85 BEARS‐WE WOULD KILL THEM! HA HA. AFTER WE FINISH THAT, WE’RE ALL GONNA GET IN THE BUSES AND GO OVER TO THE RACETRACK. WE’RE GONNA HAVE TWO OF OUR DRIVERS, JOEY LAGANO AND DENNY HAMLIN AND THEY’LL GIVE YOU A FAST LAP. OK. THE REST OF US ARE GONNA STAND UPSTAIRS AND LAUGH. I WAS GONNA DO IT TILL JOHNNY STARTED DESCRIBING IT. HE SAID YEAH‐YOU GET ABOUT AN INCH FROM THE WALL. HOW YOU GONNA GET AN INCH FROM THE WALL? I DON’T KNOW BUT AFTER HE SAID THAT I SAID I’M NOT GETTING IN THAT. FELLOW WIDE OUT RICKY SANDERS HAD NO SUCH QUALMS. LET’S DO THIS MAN. LET’S DO IT. HERE WE GO. Page 7 of 11 JOEY IS A WILD MAN WHEN HE GIVES SOMEBODY A RIDE. I KIND OF STEERED HIM OVER TOWARDS RICKY. AND I GOTTA TELL YOU, HE PUT HIM ABOUT THAT FAR FROM THE WALL. DID HE PEE ON HIMSELF? WHAT YEAR DID YOU COME IN? 85. WHEN I FIRST CAME IN THAT SEASON I THOUGHT I WAS A FISH OUTTA WATER. I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. CAUSE JOE ALREADY TOLD ME I WAS GONNA BE BACKUP.
