He told a great story the other day about when he was hired by Jimmy Johnson and ended up watching the meeting where Jerry Jones bought the Cowboys, then flying on Jones' private jet. Those guys must have been living the life during the dynasty years. I didn't know he lives in Chicago. |

Maybe Libertyville and Deerfield are just really that great to live in for a rich guy. |

There are a bunch still here. Olin, Rashied Davis, Alex Brown. Even Casey Urlacher stuck around the cops literally had to pull him away. |

Maybe Libertyville and Deerfield are just really that great to live in for a rich guy. Otis Wilson used to work out with a few old Bears and my youngest son in Hyde Park. I once joked with my friend(Dent's then wife) when she blindly walked into traffic and talked about how, if she'd been hit, it would've been all over the news. I let her know that her name wouldn't ever be cited, that she'd only be former Bear, Richard Dent's wife. She thought about it and laughingly agreed. |

Had numerous mistresses on the side. I personally knew one of them because as a YungNuggalo I was chasing the same doe. |

Olin coaches grade school football in Lake Forest. Alex brown's son was 5'9 and played hoops against Young Crest last year. Wanny's son in law is a football coach at a parish in Wilmette someone told me last week. Casey Urlacher is looking at jail time now that the bookie he collected for has been sentenced. |

Not a Bear, but Bo Jackson has talked about how he stayed in the area (Burr Ridge) in part because he needed space from his extended family who otherwise would always have been asking for shit. And then he liked it here, and kept staying. |

I feel like the guys on the Parkins show mock him. Maybe I'm reading it wrong. |

He calls him "Boy Wonder" and "Danny boy". Which is kind of insulting because Danny is like 33 or 34. They both take shots at each other on their sports thoughts. Sometimes it gets awkward. But it's only sports talk, so who cares. To be honest, some of there arguments are stupid. Like 10 year old kid arguments. Plus, Wanny isn't very bright. He doesn't really know about anything other then football. For example, if you were to ask him who the new President is going to be on January 20th, I guarantee you he doesn't know it's Joe Biden. If you asked him how many Senators do we have in the United States, he wouldn't know. That's my impression of Wanny. He's one of those guys that learned football, was in football his entire life, and only cares about football. That being said, I'm kind of jealous of him for being just a football simpleton. Because he's made millions and never had to worry about anything but fucking football. Good for him. |

Want is very smart. Don’t be fooled by his western PA mannerism and way of speaking. |

IIRC, back when Spiegel and Parkins had a regular show and Wannstedt was a weekly guest, Parkins pissed Wannstedt off by acting like a know-it-all and ridiculing one or more things he had said. I think Parkins also pissed off Jim Miller for similar reasons. |

He was on with Parkins yesterday. Just a great storyteller. Hopefully they will have him on regularly for the NFL season. |

Yeah I read he was going to be on yesterday so I listened just to hear him. He is great. |

Dave talked about drafting Todd Sauerbrun, who had just broken Reggie Roby's punting records. Wanny and Kevin Butler loved to golf, and Butler told Dave that every kicker and punter he ever knew was a good, sometimes great golfer. When Wannstedt later met Sauerbrun for the first time, he asked him what his handicap was...Sauerbrun looked at him and said, "I hate golf." Dave said that was the first warning sign. |

I've rarely listened to the Score since my car time is limited. But I took a few moments when I heard that he was going to be on at 4pm today. Since being unburdened from the coaching b.s., he's hilarious because he can be real. |

He is always good. |

Just seeing this thread bumped made me smile. One of the best parts of NFL season is having Wanny on my radio more often. |

He could probably write a book just on his time with Jimmy Johnson and Jerry Jones. |
