<p>
and this speech (given as Stanley) about football:</p>


<blockquote>"When I was a boy, I dreamed of playing football.  But I was<p>
allergic to milk and the soybean juice substitute that my mother</p>
<p>
gave me made my bones weak.  But I digress.  My point is:  I love</p>
<p>
football.  Football.  The ballet of bulldozers.  The moments of</p>
<p>
grace in a sea of fury.  The crowd:  fickle, fanatical, and</p>
<p>
faithful.  Every kick-off is possibility.  Every down a war.  And</p>
<p>
every now and then, it doesn't come down to fancy strategy or</p>
<p>
speed or strength. It comes down to who has more heart.  Yes.</p>
<p>
You see football is in my bones, and where goes the two point</p>
<p>
conversion, the on-side kick and the TV time-out, so go I.  I</p>
<p>
have seen the locker room my friends.  I have smelled the shoes,</p>
<p>
stormed the field and sung the songs.  And I have heard the</p>
<p>
footsteps.   Yes.  And they say to me, they say 'Stanley, is</p>
<p>
football the greatest game in the world?'  And I say, 'Yes,</p>
<p>
footsteps.  Yes it is!'".</p>

A reported asked Hopper if he had any stories about Hollywood and he said that he didn't have any stories about Hollywood - Hollywood had stories about him.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/178354</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/178354</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chicopee John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 01 Jun 2010 12:45:03 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to RIP Dennis Hopper on Mon, 31 May 2010 20:45:44 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/mr.-t" aria-label="Profile: mr.-t">@<bdi>mr.-t</bdi></a> <a href="/post/175865">said</a>:</p>He will be missed.

<p>
And, to think, throughout this ordeal he fought his wife tooth and nail about the money he was going to leave.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/175857</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/175857</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chicopee John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 30 May 2010 13:39:49 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to RIP Dennis Hopper on Sun, 30 May 2010 02:57:24 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>I would have put money on Dennis having six months or less when they gave him the star on the Walk of Fame.
