is what this guy is doing to the record books comparable to what BABE RUTH DID????
Babe Ruth when he first showed up was hitting more home runs than ENTIRE TEAMS were hitting....He made a fucking joke of the record books....
Isnt what Devin Hester is doing the same thing??? Actually isnt it even MORE IMPRESSIVE????
he has scored i think 11 touchdowns on returns in 26 games???? (something like that)
the RECORD is 13 touchdowns in 223 games????(ill find out the guys name in a second...heheheh)
THATS JUST FUCKING INSANE!!!!!!!
isnt it like BARRY "STEROID FREAK" BONDS hitting 150 home runs in a season????
or like Chamberlain scoring 150 points in a game?????
or am i talking out of my ass??????

AND.....plenty of teams have kicked away from him in those 26 games!
It's really quite simple.
Oh, and suck my balls.
Why would you start was has no end?
10-4-96 \ 5-6-10
9-6-98 \ 5-7-10
4-19-03 \ 9-22-12
10-6-04 \ 7-19-13
6-24-06 \ 12-6-13
10-1-14 \ 4-16-16
\ 4-26-16 \
Or more accurately in Ruth's case, apples to hot dogs, beer and hookers.
But what Hester has done is pretty astounding.
Brian Mitchell is the name that you are seeking, If I not mistaken.
He can't leave of his own accord, only when they toss him out of here.
bostonlou was banned forever, I cut my posting down by 89% and was asked by 36,078 people why I came out of my 4 day retirement, and I think there were several birthdays, apparently nobody thought my Devin Hester post was brilliant, and you can all still suck my motherfucking nuts. That about sums it up.
Take care.
Why would you start was has no end?
Shite.....the mods hate me. Watch, within a week, I'll be with Lou in the land of the undead. Such a waste of unshared comedy.

i was comparing him to Ruth as far as what he is doing to the record books....
when Ruth started hitting home runs he was hitting more home runs a season than many teams were hitting...
how can you NOT compare scoring 11 return touchdowns almost 10 TIMES FASTER than the next closest competitor??? (as far as how many games it has taken).....
im not comparing him to Ruth as far as career stats.....im not a fool....hehehehe
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
...and, it still could take Hester 278 games to get # 13.
Not to be technical, but one of Hester's returns was a FG return and those are not qualified as return tds in the NFL record books. The NFL record book only lists combined punt and kick returns for tds.
Also, Dante Hall has 12 tds in 104 games and the record is 13 combined in how many games Brian Mitchell played so Hall should take the record sooner than Hester.
Plus for Hester to be truly as dominate in such a specialized category, he would have to break both the career individual punt return (10 by Eric Metcalf) and individual kick return record (6 held by many players.)
Plus, he would have to have a season that would surpass Travis Williams in kick returns. Williams had the greatest single season as a return man averaging 41 yards a kick return and 4 tds in one season.

See my edit.
And are you sure it's 277 games???? That's over 17 years of games!
Angelo cannot fuck this up. He has to realize what a special guy this is. I'd pay him whatever he wanted.
If I were GM of the Bears, he would be my offeason moves:
- Sign Briggs to a fair 5 yr deal and rescind the Franchise tag.
- Sign Berrian to a hearty 3 year deal.
- Sign Grossman to a cheap-incentive laden 2 year deal.(I mean I think he'd even be a decent back-up if not the starter)
- Sign Hester to a huge contract ASAP. Slap Franchise tag on him.
- Release Griese.
- Get rid of everyone on the O-Line except Kruetz.
- DRAFT O-LINE. Maybe a safety. Maybe a QB in the later rounds.
- Unfortunatley, we may have to let Aybendejo go though.
- Fire Ron Turner.
- Release Adam Archuletta.
I just checked and Brian Mitchell only played in 223 games. Also in his last year he didn't have a return for a td so it took him at most 207 games to get 13 tds.

I'm pretty sure. I saw ESPN Sportscenter after the Chicago game. It was something around that.
sorry about that....
but still
223 GAMES!!!!!!
hester hasnt played 2 full seasons....
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Blasphemy!
Just remember Dante Hall started out like a ball of flame too and teams just stopped kicking to him. Not all coaches are as arrogant as Shanahan.
Hester does currently have the all time highest career punt return average, but it's a tough record to hold as your career gets longer.

He already broke Gayle Sayers team record....and he was an okay return man!
they can stop kicking to him altogether.....right this second...
and he would have to be considered the greatest return man EVER to play the game.......right???
even if he never returned another kick.....right?????
