Most spot-on post ever, 100%. I honestly can’t tell you which of two was more bat-**** crazy. Edit: Probably Al.

Good book about him - They Call Me Dirty. He also had a mean rivalry with Merlin Olsen of the Rams.

In the article, it says Olsen got back at him - in his TV show, there is a scene showing a headstone, and on the headstone it had Dobler's name on it.
