I wish I could remember where I read it, but years ago I read about an informal poll taken among NFL players as to who was the dirtiest NFL player. Pittsburgh's Lynn Swan got the most votes.
That rather surprised me.
Really? I would have thought that title would go to well, anyone on the Raiders team. Steelers play rough, real football. If Thursday’s game is any indication, the refs have been told to no longer allow real hits. Anything past girl scout flag football has become unnecessary roughness. However, holding Steelers defensive ends virtually every play is just fine.
