Howie Carr just made what he called his "decree", his
"mandate" (his word), no gay messages on the chumpline prior to the
Superbowl.

This was in response to JayX (yers truly) bringing up
the Mike Vrabel incident

(See, Boston Globe, Saturday, January 29th, Page D6 -
Nick Cafardo)

Eagles linebacker Ike Reese said in a Sports
Illustrated article "...we were all down there
scrambling for it. Mike Vrabel had my (deleted on
advice of counsel) ... in his hand, and he was
squeezing them."

Here's the SPORTS ILLUSTRATED article

IKE REESE, Eagles Linebacker

"When we played the Patriots last year [Eagles running back] Brian Westbrook fumbled a punt, and we were all down there scrambling for it. [Patriots linebacker] Mike Vrabel had my testicles in his hand, and he was squeezing them. Where the football ends up depends on who has the strongest will or the strongest hands. Guys reach inside the face mask to gouge your eyes. But the biggest thing is the grabbing of the testicles. It is crazy."

MARCO RIVERA, Packers Guard

"I've had guys go for the privates, guys try to put their elbow in my neck, guys reaching inside my helmet. It's really violent down there, trying to get that ball. It's dangerous. In my third year at Penn State, there was a fumble in the end zone. I dived for it with my arms outstretched, and five guys landed on me. Blew out my shoulder. I had to have surgery. That was the closest I've come to scoring a touchdown."
