the chicago trib had some funny bear awards, but the ones related to butkus were the best: hungriest bear: dick butkus, who bit a detroit lion in the leg. second hungriest bear: frank cornish, who ate seven pork chops in the company of trib sportswriter robert markus, while on suspension for overeating. hottest bear: dick butkus, who punched out the rear window of a DC-3 to get some air. fortunately, the plane was on the ground. and here it is, butkus fans, probably the greatest quote i've heard in football in a long time. talk about a humanitarian, talk about a sweet guy. ***** most compassionate quote -- dick butkus: "i never deliberately tried to hurt anybody, you know, unless it was important -- like a league game or something." bear down, chicago bears!!! /* boomer sooner #1 */ ron vaughn ...!ihnp4!ihdev!rjv
