Had he chosen Walsh, like he should have, this franchise would be considered one of the All-time best.
Actually he chose Bill Johnson, because as every football fan knows, defense wins championships. Truth is he promised the job to both men (named Bill) figuring one or the other would be hired away before he was ready to give it up. But, your point is well taken.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
