Re: Does Coach Shanahan have a glass eye???

The Grim Reaper wears Mike Shanahan pajamas..

Who is Mike Shanahan? - Capital Comment Blog (washingtonian.com)

When he was a sophomore at Eastern Illinois University in 1971, Shanahan and a friend were cruising Chicago on Shanahan’s Kawasaki 500 motorcycle when a driver ran a stoplight and plowed into them. Shanahan was thrown 110 feet but escaped with an injured ankle. His friend died.

A few months after the motorcycle crash, Shanahan, a five-foot-nine quarterback, was hit so hard in practice that one of his kidneys ruptured and he was given last rites. After recovering—he lost the kidney—he wanted to play again but was sidelined for the rest of college, a turn of events that sparked his coaching career.

Funny how life always seems to have a plan for you.

I survived a motorcycle accident. The only thing it affected was the part of my brain that deals with spelling.

Glass eye? probably a result from multiple skullf*ckings he endured while in Denver

I'm not sure if this thread is an epic fail or a Warpath classic.

Both I think...
