Wasn't that Vince Lombardi with the Packers?

I don't know. I should have qualified my question, sorry. My question refers to a hockey team owner. Did Lombardi own the Pack? I know he was a good Catholic and studied for the priesthood for two years. I'm a Catholic girl but I'm not sure if it's ok to withhold sex for profit?!?!?! I was just brought up to withhold sex....... ;):ohmy:

eddie shore of the Springfield Indians?

Wooowhooo!!!! A winner!!!

His career is sprinkled with tales of broken bones, bloodied faces and long-running vendettas. Opposing players are said to have pooled money in a bounty on his head. Shore even took on team mates, once nearly losing an ear in a brawl at a Bruins' practice.

Acting as owner, manager, coach, trainer, ticket puncher - you name it - Shore was the man nobody wanted to play for. He made players walk the streets with sandwich boards advertising games. He fed them a vile home remedy of how own making. He called them in to blow up balloons or sweep the aisles when the Ice Capades came to town. He once called a meeting of players' wives, asking them to withhold sex until the men played better. He was a legendary penny-pincher, forcing his players to use the cheapest sticks and equipment.
