Nice article on Shula

[dolphan39]

Don Shula was very serious about curfew. Jim Mandich, the tight end on the Dolphins' unbeaten 1972 team, tells this story:

"We used to stay in this hotel that had an old elevator man who was on night duty. One time coach Shula gave him a ball. The guy was all excited. Shula told him to get all the players who came in on his shift, which began at 11 p.m., to autograph it. Our curfew was 11 p.m.

"Next time coach Shula saw the guy he asked to see the ball. Everyone whose name was on it got fined for coming in after curfew."

Don Shula rules. Just named one of the top ten coaches of all time by ESPN. Should have been higher.

So the Dolphins held press conference No.2, and Shula was so mad that he had his PR man make the announcement. And naturally the new housing leniency was over. Next night Shula was walking back to his room and what did he see but Alfred Ogelsby taped to a tree. He kept walking.

"Alfred would have stayed there all night," Weinstein said, "except that his buddy, Shawn Lee, cut him loose. He was probably the only guy who would have."

:roflmao:

ahhh the memories Alfred Ogelsby
