"Campbell is widely acknowledged as one of the best running backs in NFL
history. He is still considered a prototype for the bruising, power
running back. Described as a "one-man demolition team," Campbell was a
punishing runner....
...All the pounding he absorbed, all the bone-jarring blows from second,
third and fourth tacklers wore down his body and prompted a premature
drop-off in performance. Beside the fact that debate still rages as to
whether Coach Bum Philips hastened the end of Campbell's career by overworking him, the consensus
is clear that during Campbell's heyday, few running backs were as
productive or imposing."
I tell you what though - it is great for now to see Google run through defenses and celebrate with an emphatic "Skoal, Brother!"
Update: Gary Hamel extols Google in a WSJ column, Paul Kedrosky spits tobacco juice over it!
