Were Christian Okoye’s Shoulder Pads The Most Ridicolous Thing In the Last 100 Years?
I just felt like after blogging about that Tecmo Bowl documentary I’d be remiss not to at least mention Christian Okoye’s shoulder pads. Those had to be the most outrageous pads in the history of the NFL right? Like huge doesn’t even begin to describe how huge those things were. Awesome.


are those things regulation?
I was the chiefs in the old madden games to use Okoye every time. Bo Jackson techmo bowl style.
A+ blog. Keep up the hard work.
Although huge does describe the size of your Toucan Sam beak, can you smoke a cigarette in the rain or what?
No, I would say your nose is the most ridiculous thing in the last 100 years.
the Nigerian Nightmare, what a monster. what the hell happened to that guy, anyway? he was hot in the streets from like ’91-93, then just disappeared.
Okoye was like the Pedro Cerrano of the NFL.
Biggest since Eric Dickerson.

Neil still having a job is definitely up there as well.
Early 90s AFC FTW
He was a soccer pussy turned footballer. He would a have played in the Pope’s bubble car if they would’ve let him. Love the Atwater hit on him.
Are u serious? Name a dude that even wears thigh pads now, or knee pads, or fucking elbow pads… Pretty sure you’d get a pink slip if you showed up to practice today with fucking elbow pads on.
Nice spelling puto i would love to see your fat ass waddling around in pads
The old Donzi shoulder pads. Popular in Hockey in the late 80′s. You hit someone and it sounded harder than it really was. Everyone in the Metro Boston League had em.
donzis were the balls, and you had to get them at adams sports

Tuffnuttz, Adams sports was the shit. I remember getting a Deion face mask there, and a tinted shield. Was badass.
yeah until steve atwater smacked him in the mouth like he was whitney houston
He was never the same after Steve Atwater laid a Madden style hit stick on him.
I miss the old metro league. Rip mass bay chiefs. Still have my Jersey
