�I never tried to intentionally hurt anyone.� � Andre �Dirty� Waters in a 2004 interview.Yeah, tell into Redskins kicker Jess Atkinson, whose career was cut short by a Waters cheap shot to the leg back in those "glory years" of the Buddy Ryan-led Eagles. Those years when the Eagles talked the talk but never won anything of note.
Or tell it to Doug Williams, who was once sucker punched from behind by Waters, leading to surgery.
Or tell it to any of those other countless recipients of his cheap shots. At least Bill Romanowski needed to be in a roid rage to injure people. Waters, for all I can tell, was just an a-hole with no class.
Hey, I'm just amazed the bullet that Waters used on himself didn�t take out an innocent bystander or three. Autopsy reports are unclear on whether he was watching the Eagles suck again on Sunday before ending his life. If so, then a motive was pretty clear. Or maybe he was upset that he wasn't the one to ruin Donovan McNabb's career.
What? Is that too harsh? Perhaps I�m being too hard. I like other NFL fans, will take a moment to honor Waters. I also would like to think that the last thing that went through Waters� mind�other than that bullet�was how Jess Atkins got the best of him.
Now I'm sure the league is already figuring out the best way to exploit this news for the benefit of the Giants.
