    One of my favorite Jets ever. Named my dog Penny after him.

    more John Hall... six years here and they never found a helmet that could fit him :D

    one thing about John Hall though that I particularly respect: He was one tough kicker. Its very rare that you see a kicker get down the field on a kickoff sometimes before the other guys and lay a lick on the return man. It was not uncommon in his time here to see the returner get passed the initial defenders only to get dropped by Hall like a LB at the 30 yard line.

    Then there's the story from when he was in Washington. During a preseason game there was a scuffle after the kickoff. Hall came up and knocked out a defensive end, getting called for unnecessary roughness. A defensive lineman knocked out by a kicker- so embarrassing!

    I think the Buttfumble was the classic keystone cop moment in NFL history

    Hey Stokes...I have a Black & Green Reebok Pennington jersey (size Med) sitting in my closet.

    It was a stage prop on a sports show I worked on. It got more camera time than Tom Arnold!

    It's yours if you want it. Free shipping included.

    Thanks but no thanks.

    That black and green look has to be about the worst color scheme ever.

    :D

    Love the pooch but I hope she isn't injured as much as Pennington was.

    Jesus, I don't remember that at all. Probably a good thing. Brutal.

    I met Tom many times at Hofstra and once at his sons football game in Massapequa, a truly nice guy, everytime I saw him I told him "You are our best punter since Curly Johnson" and he would laugh and walk over to me and my sons, never missed an autograph or photo op with a kid, a great guy.

    Tupa was awesome. its almost old school and awesome that he was drafted as a 3rd round QB and didn't even start punting until he was in the league for like 5 years and then had a 10+ year career as a punter. like Steve Spurrier or something
