After polishing off a case all to himself.. Taylor made a point to show up to his fellow brothers in arms jersey retirement ceremony. What many don’t know the two haven’t spoken in years prior to this. And like he did to opposing teams for thirteen years, Taylor was right there with his quarterback. Phil asks Lawrence to run an out with dress shoes and a belly full of booze. And like dramatic fashion, Taylor caught a perfectly thrown pass for an easy six.

I didn’t know that they hadn’t spoken - was there some beef or they just lost touch? |

Something happened between them. There's video of Lawrence talking about it somewhere.

What's great about it is that is wasn't rehearsed. LT had no idea what Phil was up to, and as LT said; instead of Phil tossing him a short easy throw, Phil motioned to him to go downfield so the pressure was on. Pretty sure LT was wearing sandals too.

Thanks … didn’t know that Taylor could decimate an offense by just being on the field. No opposing player could stop that locomotive once it got a full head of steam. The only thing that brought the man of steel to his knees was addiction. It doesn’t care about race, financial gain, or spot on the ladder of life. Once it has you by the throat, it will not let go for anyone. When he called it a career his old thorn continued to dig by his side. Now with nothing but time and money he went down that dark and lonely hole. A place that friends and family are forbidden. All that is left is misery, enough of that to bring mere men to their knees. It took years and fallen down enough times that he needed those same friends and family to pick him up. Simms, Carson, and many others were there to help up their former legendary teammate. Lawrence lived enough for ten lives. |

I was there too, and I remember all of that well (the ceremony, I mean....the game was not worth remembering, lol)

Well deserved. Simms was a player that could’ve played in any generation. Tough. Clutch. Accurate. A great Giant.
