NFL news... RIP Jack Tatum

One of my favorite Raiders' all-time players has died:Jack Tatum.... he played college with the late Woody Hayes,at THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY... he wrote a book called,"They called me Assassin",which the Steelers,and other people did not like... who cares!!!!!!!! i loved it... he was 61,and a three-time Pro Bowler,and won a National Championship,with Ohio State... he played nine years,of ten,with the Raiders... he hit Darryl Stingley,of the New England Patriots,during an exhibition game,in,i believe,1978,and paralyzed him,from the neck down... he said,in the book,that he did try to talk to Stingley,but did not do it...
