I don't like it, you don't like it, very few of us do. Not wish ill thoughts upon the man, but I wish he would just retire.

Fun fact: Mike Brown rushed for 10 TDs in 1956. Can you even imagine that? Pretty awful QB stats though:

Weren't leather helmets prevalent just prior to '56, like during Mike's formative years? Could explain a lot .....
