Football Player

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He said, 'When I hit a guy, I'll hit him in the throat. He doesn't have any pads on his throat.'
    He bit Viking Doug Sutherland, who complained, 'I never played a football game before where I also had to worry about rabies.'
    During a Monday Night Football replay, Alex Karras observed, 'There you have it, folks. Holding, tripping, kicking -- all on the same play. That's Conrad Dobler, the dirtiest player in professional football.'
    He would go out of his way to spit on injured players.
    Sports Illustrated noted, 'If everybody played like him, football couldn't exist.'
    He said about his womanizing during his playing days, 'I didn't catch their names, half of them.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He has required nine knee replacements.
    Like many other veterans, he has been denied disability assistance from the NFL.
    He said, 'I always thought if you busted your ass for the team, you'd be rewarded in the end. But they don't reward you. They try to beat you down.'
    His wife Joy became a paraplegic after falling out of a hammock (2001).
    After he revealed that he could not afford to send his two youngest children to college because of his and Joy's medical expenses, golfer Phil Mickelson volunteered to pay for their education.
