Found this hidden away on the bbc website...

Some people really hold grudges. It seems the 30-40yrs since they played against each other just wasn't long enough for them to forgive and forget!

Yes, Mike Carlson mentioned this (2?) weeks ago on the C4 NFL game and it also did the rounds on sky sports news (who were struggling to explain the existence of a Canadian football league).

I'm sure Carlson said that one of the two was particularly renowned for being a "dirty" player back in the day

Here it is on Youtube with some interesting comments.


I rememberJoe Kapp when he led the Vikings to their only NFL championship in '69. No one remembers it because it they then lost Super Bowl 4 to the Chiefs, the last SB before the merger.
