Joe Morrison and Willie Young
One Sunday afternoon during a particularly rough game between the New York Giants and the Los Angeles Rams, the Giants' tough ten-year veteran Joe Morrison tried to intervene when an angry referee ejected Willie Young from the game, for roughing the Rams' fabulous Deacon Jones, and talking even rougher to the official.
Calmly, big Joe Morrison told the referee that football is an emotional game, and that his teammate Willie Young didn't really mean all he said to the offended referee.
"Sure, football is an emotional game," snapped the referee, "and I'm a very emotional man. And that's why Young is out of the game!"
