September 16, 200521 yr Author Fan (this was edited, sorry for the type-o earlier fan, I meant nothing by it)... It has been stated many times that Reggie will go to the hall as a Packer. Or at least that's what his wife has said. Reggie also won his only Super Bowl with the Packers. He left Philly on bitter terms and when the Eagles and Packers played eachother after Reggie retired, Reggie always attended the games whether they were at Green Bay or in Philadelphia and would always watch the games from the sidelines... The PACKERS sidelines.

I dont care, in my mind he will always be an eagle.
September 16, 200521 yr From SI's Overrated and Underrated piece from 11/04/02 Vince Lombardi could beat you with the sweep, the bomb, the epigram. Winning isn't everything: it's the only thing. His record with the Packers(and an orphan year with the Washington Redskins) was 105-35-6. His teams won six division titles, five NFL Championships, and the first two Super Bowls. Lombardi was the dominant coach of the dominant sport of his generation, precisely the reason the breathless Y2K polls that proclaimed him the coach of the century got it wrong. Lombardi's head-coaching-career begain in the 1950s and ended with his death from cancer in 1970, but he was a man of the '60s - the era when football became America's Game and Green Bay became America's town. It was also the last decade when coaching was relatively simple. The confluence of events that would alter American Sports - the upheaval on college campuses, the emergence of the black athlete, the transformation of athletes into celebrities - did not strike the NFL like a gale-force wind until after Lombardi's death. The Packers he led so skillfully were temperamentally closer to the soon to be soilders he coached at Army in the '50s than the current players coach Mike Sherman handles. I tseems doubtful that Lombardi would have been malleable enough to confront the modern athlete, a challenge that ultimately proved too daunting for legendary contemporary, Tom Landry
September 16, 200521 yr Reggie White will always be an Eagle in my mind. Eagles fans hated Norman Braman and his treatment of Reggie....
