The greatest football player of all time, and one of the greatest athletes in professional team sports at a global level of all time.

Talk is cheap, you lead by example and LT did exactly that.

Everytime I have a tough task I watch LT's 4 minute clip for motivation. I still get goosebumps watching how good he was ... relentless and unstoppable!

Daboll or Wink should play this tape for the team as they are getting on the field.

You can play that tape as many times as you want, we seem to have too many 'fat cats' who think the world revolves around them. LT was a hungry player every time he walked out onto the field. Who on the Giant's defense today can we say that about?

Before captains were announced I heard someone say this on the radio:

"If you have 8 captains, you have no captains"

Not sure where I heard it, but I think it was Pat Kirwan on NFL Radio (honestly could have read it on this forum).  And I keep thinking back to that statement and trying to figure out, who is a real leader on this team.

Yep, said this the other day way too many captains has devalued what it means to be one.  Don't think every vet or good player needs to have that designation to either lead by example or motivation it should come regardless.
