I believe you're refering to the legendary "Lion's Den/Spear/Banshee" speech... Now that's the kind of speech that will get men to follow you through the gates of Hell itself!

When was "one and one"? I am hearing it wrong?

I'm pretty sure he is saying back when we were "What and What" people were saying.....

I still wonder though if he would have brought a sword into the locker room if the Arenas thing had happened a day earlier.

I've been saying that for 2 years. I am the only Den mother that refused to do that crap.

I thought he was going to be slashing up the locker room with the sword, and bashing stuff with the shovel. THAT would have been cool.

Harbs should hold that sword over his head and run screaming out on to the field with it when they introduce the Ravens this week! Then light it on fire! And then stab it into the Foxboro turf!

That would ROCK!!!

Thats right and IIRC the 2x4 speech was Fisher

LOL I actually got to see Harbs speak up close at an event (about 100 people) before this season started. It was a business thing. He's a very polished guy. He was a great speaker. Went over his time but he was great. Now I'm a little different than your average NFL player but he has a presence and I think he pulls it off.

Yea, that's the one! That would get me motivated; or maybe even bring Pacino in to redo his "fight for every inch" speech delivered in the movie On Any Given Sunday.

If we keep making the playoffs, keep being Chester Cheetah!

And I am not stunned in the least the uber PC Baltimore Sun drew these comparisons. This is the same paper that refuses to allow ads for any sort of gun sales, shops, etc. They follow the mentality of misdemeanor homicides in black and poor neighborhoods, placing the story inside all the while splashing it on their front page when a white person gets killed in Canton.

Should you expect anything more from that rag?

ok, off my soap box now .... :)

That "speech" was to the press, not the players. Small correction to the story, I know, but the players saw it like we all did -- on TV.

That is how he pulled off Bisciotti and got the job as an out-of-the box hire.
