It's football, not boxing.....that kind of turned me off to him. Let your play do the talking. Play football and shut up and it's carried over to his commentating. But it's a nice gesture on Snyder's part, he was a good player, I'm just not sure he should go up there w/ Riggins, Monk, Green, Dexter, Sonny, Clark and so on. Those guys were GREAT Redskins, not sure I'd put B.Mitch in that category.
Sorry you don't feel that way. B-Mitch was a player who gave his all on the field. He is second only to Jerry Rice in all purpose yards from scrimmage. He is the all time punt/KR leader. If that doesn't make him great, than what does?
