Al Davis is was and always will be a prick. Lamar was the brains of the AFL.

Buy you a drink?
Even a bronco hater has to love the story of Elway trying to head hunt Al with a sideline throw.

As if I needed another reason to despise Al Davis.

Actually, in reading that article, it seems like Lamar Hunt was saving the Broncos and the AFL, not Al Davis. Am I missing something? The article says that it was the merger that saved the Broncos, not Al Davis choosing to fight against a more established foe.

Now wait a ****ing minute.
The league sends Davis out to "wage war", but works behind his back to strike a deal and merge? Who's the ****ing bad guy again? |

Good Cop, Bad Cop I surmise. Lamar as the reasonable one and Davis as the attack dog.

Didn't ol' Al pay for DT's funeral or something like that?
He said he didn't care if another player played for a team he hated, he was wanting to do something for a great player. So for that, I've set aside any ill will towards the old man.

Double edged sword, the threat of the war that Al was about to unleash brought Tex to Lamar and Lamar played ball. Al felt betrayed, but he was instrumental to the peace.
