Chasing Hardware

All of my subjects had one thing in common; they wanted to win titles & championships. They were Chasing Hardware.

@BackItUp74 @Raiders @Colts @RobGronkowski @AntonioGates85 @TonyGonzalez88 @peter_king @tomhanks @MCHammer @BurgessOwens @icecube @tae15adams @RaidersBeat Thank you JB, appreciate that. As you could tell, Raymond made it easy for me. So many great stories from growing up in Maryland, Morgan St & of course the Raiders & Colts years.

CH #129: Great stories from @Raiders & @Colts legend Raymond Chester, Pro Bowler & ‘80 SB champ. Building on what J Mackey & M Ditka did for the TE position, Chester helped get it to next level: savage blocker & able to stretch a D over the top paving the way for next generation.

So great having @AlexiLalas, @ussoccer Hall of Famer & @USMNT ‘94 & ‘98 WCup central defender on the latest Chasing Hardware.
That 94 team laid the groundwork for @MLS & US players to go overseas to play.
He won a ring w/ @LAGalaxy & as GM brought Beckham to America.

@PeterVecsey1 @88_jm2 @RealErnieGreen And he influenced a fourth nickname: I asked Chuck Foreman, the ‘Spin Doctor’, where he got his moves. He told me from watching Earl Monroe while growing up in Maryland.

Episode 120 of CH podcast:
My interview w/ @packers & Redskins (@Commanders) & @PennStateFball @ProFootballHOF linebacker Dave Robinson.
Dave starred on the Lombardi dynasty that won 3 straight titles, & was part of 1 of the most iconic LB trios ever.
Great stories.

@Mr_Detroit_Lion @packers @Commanders @PennStateFball @ProFootballHOF @PSUBarstool @ThePSUTroll @jtimberlake @bretmichaels @peter_king @BrettFavre @greta @VancityReynolds @cheeseheadtv @PRyan He and Bobby Bell changed the position. And think about going to your right against that defense: Willie Davis at End, Dave at LB, & Herb Adderley at CB. Tough to find a tougher ‘side’ in history.
