I know because I hung out there quite a bit back then. Lived in the apartments behind the bar. Steele, Braham and O'Dwyer were regulars. Met Justin Smith as well.
Braham and O'Dwyer tried to pick up on my girl. I was only 21 and 155 lbs so I wasn't about to pick a fight with 2 Bengals linemen. Oddly enough, she was loyal to me that night, but wound up cheating on me a few months later, so maybe they almost did me a favor.
O'Dwyer in particular was a doosh. Justin Smith was humble and just quietly drank his beer.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
