Conrad Doblerҳ Rookie Training Camp Ends in Failure This one off weҬl be back, but I enjoy pounding on him because I like to have them believe that hey hereҳ, a boy from Wyoming that just energy you lunch but before Conrad Dobler, could hand anybody their lunch.He would have to sing for his in the training table tradition of a rookie singing for his supper.Oh Louis Cardinal veterans were less than impressed with this cocky kid from Laramie and it wasnҴ just his singing voice.Conrad Dolan made more mistakes during his rookie training camp in any plans ever seen and Dober kept jumping off sides and he kept blowing plays and we kept hearing how smart he was that he had over a 3 point average of wyoming and we didnҴ buy any Of that the day that conrad Dobler got cut Tom banks and I went out and had a beer and we just laughed ֠I mean we were delighted that this guy was finally out of our hair, and then he was back in a couple weeks and of course, The rest is history. Bertҳ determination leads him to become one of the most successful Cardinals I was determined since they gave me the second opportunity to play with the famous Cardinals.I wasnҴ no, let that happen again to me.That was one of the things that changed my philosophy in football, that they didnҴ really care, whether I made it or not, that had to be from within hell.When I was a stainless Carter, they had to go home and take a nap.I had to get ready for the next day.Excited today was gon na, be some more people I was gon na have to fight kinda go Bert fought every day in practice for at least three years.I never saw him like it.He fought every day and he fought anybody that got in his way and he did that until he developed into a good football player.And thatҳ why the coaches kept me around, because I had the hutzpah, the intestinal fortitude baguettes the head in the eyes to go out there and to played to compete to win. How a hustler turned into one of the best pass protecting guards in And they liked that about me and the thing is, I felt that I had to keep that type of aggressiveness there, because itҳ the thing that got me started and when he first started in this league he was not a very talented football player.Chances are that he missed his block at the line of scrimmage, but what he did is he got up.He ran down field and knocked somebody down.He knocked down a linebacker.He knocked down a defensive back.He hustled and ended up making a play.Then what happened is that over the years he really developed into a good football player he developed into one of the best pass protecting guards.This game has seen his technique sometimes were bizzarre. Conradҳ Dirty Moves Overlook His Football Accomplishments He would kick, he would leg whip, he would trip, but his man didnҴ get to the quarterback and what happened is that this image of being the gameҳ dirtiest player overshadowed all his accomplishments on the field as being a good football player?You know a lot of people have talked about the laying whips and things like this, but uh.I always thought we should have gotten points for that, because I thought those are great.Athletic moves to be mobile and to be athletic like that.I think I donҴ know those were classical moves, but you know everyone were to choose me of this fighting stuff, but IҶe asked many many people if someone puts his fingers in your mouth and the feel of combat.What are you going to do?One time we played the Cowboys in Dallas Lee Roy Jordan put his hand up inside Conradҳ facemask.Now I donҴ know if it was to stroke his mustache or to conduct some sort of mayhem on Conradҳ person. Conradҳ Little Finger Prevents Him from Losing the Vote I donҴ know all I know is that, on their way up Conradҳ face his little fingers made a pit stop around Conradҳ mouth later I started yelling like there was no votes tomorrow.I donҴ know if I ever really broke rules.I think that I was a master at playing in the gray area of every rule ever made.I played in the gray areas, and I was the best at it now.Letғ be honest about it, Conrad builder was a self-styled and a factual dirty player.That was his way of compensating for a lack of some basic skills and by getting people to forget that they were playing football and think they were in a street fight.He got the advantage because he was a good street fighter, not nearly as good a football player as he was a street fighter.That was my philosophy.Just take the man out of his game, then you own him more.They concentrate on what Iҭ doing the more theyҲe concerned about me: theyҲe, not concentrating on the guy with the hoochie, the guy, with the football as long as theyҲe. Dover Gives Up Football to Pursue a Career in Broadcasting Doing that I donҴ even have to block the man, and I think Gober is the only guy that ever really got me to a point where I was angry enough to take a swing.Looking back, I got right on his level when I did that and quit playing the kind of football that I could have controlled him with and started trying to play the kind of football he wanted to play.Where losses poise.Thatғ what bothers him more than anything else, not any of the things that happen on the field, not the violence, not the combat, not the blocking not to hit and not to punching.It was him losing his port and when the fourth quarter came along, he took himself off the field and I was still out there youҲe right youҲe.Damn right, he wonҴ send me any flowers after heҤ been traded around a bit.He ended up in Buffalo.I was down to do the game for NBC and Dobler his mother and father were there at that time time.His father came over.You donҴ like my son to you, mr Dover, I said I really had kind of put that behind me. Doblerҳ dirtiest play ends his career I said a matter of fact at practice.Today I shook hands with Conrad.He said you shook hands with my son.I said yes, he said count your fingers in Buffalo dolars reputation.Finally, caught up with him, officials took away the gray area in which he had flourished and his career ended not as Conrad Dobler, three-time All Pro, but simply the dirtiest player who ever lived.I think my only regret is that, because of all this hype, because of all this good copy people, people forget together, you know ֠maybe I did have a little bit of tough.I mean I didnҴ do something a little bit different.I was a survivor I had to and I think thatҳ they forget that I was a player of substance.I was the best at my position at one time.Protecting a slim three-point lead on the last play of the game.
