Poll question: Who should they run against Lynn Swann if he runs for governor in PA
I just remembered that Franco Harris is a democrat so maybe they could talk him into it.

1. Franco. He's a nice guy (and a Dem).
Mind you, I met Swannie once, too, and he was nice, but his politics suck.

12. His background is why I think he's a dem
Edited on Tue Mar-15-05 02:45 PM by sasquatch
He was a biracial child(Italian/African American) of two very despised races when he was growing up in the united states. I think he knows what it really is like to come from nothing so that's why he's one to always send down the elevator for someone else.

13. Didnt know that about Franco
You know Roy Campanella of the old Brooklyn Dodgers, he was also Italian/African American.

2. Jack Tatum.
They call him assassin. Swanny is a big punk on a crossing route.

7. Tatum never speared anyone I think
Spearing is when you hit with your head down but he sure as hell cleaned your clock when he did hit you. On to the matter at hand: Oh hell yeah they have just call'em up and ask sometime.

10. That's right Jack said he never speared anyone...
of course Stingley might have a different version of events. I always loved Tatum. He was everything a Raider was supposed to be.

8. Good ol' Lester...
didn't he have a real severe speech impediment or stuttering problem though? That might be a problem in a debate but, maybe Lester could just knock the shit outta Swan and end it before it starts. Hell, Lester wouldn't have say shit, just knock Swann unconscious.
