(Chatting down Leon Lett, bouncing off his head vs CLE, TD in college game) But he's not a legendary player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) what is missing??? hmmm (maybe I missed it?) the reason why the OP made his statement 14 questions with The Legend Don Beebe Edited June 27, 2019 by ShadyBillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Hooks Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) I think this is a silly thing to make a thread over. Is Beebe legendary? Had some legendary moments. I bet some people consider him to be so what’s the problem? You and your sensibilities couldn’t let this great injustice go unchecked? God forbid someone considered a FOOTBALL player legendary and you didn’t agree with the words to describe him. Gross.

Thurman#1 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 11 hours ago, Ethan in Portland said: He has three plays that are in highlight reels. Only one of which is a completed pass. Yes he chased down Lett but does that make him a legend? He bounced his head off the ground in what should have been ruled an interception not an incomplete pass. And yes he caught a TD in the comeback game. That is not a legendary career. Not even close. Who referred to him as a legend? He was a good player. He remains in the hearts of Bills fans because that Lett play was the kind of play Bills fandom loves, working as hard as possible regardless of the situation. It has become a symbol, and for good reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is 90% of his legendary status. In reality, he was a spectacularly mediocre WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many NFL legends participated in 6 SB? hence the picture I posted. Beebe appeared in six Super Bowls as a player — (XXV, XXVI, XXVII and XXVIII with the Buffalo Bills; XXXI and XXXII with the Green Bay Packers) — an NFL record that he shares with former Bills teammate Mike Lodish 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artem Lipatov Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 He is one of that great Bills 90s team who finally have received his ring. Maybe it's karma for "never give up" moment with Lett )) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the simple fact that you are mentioning his name 25 years after he last played for Buffalo and everyone knows who he is, what he did and what he was known for, by definition is legendary.

Royale with Cheese Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 (edited) If you're white and you're the fastest guy on the field in 95% of the games you play in....you're a legend. It's equivalent to NASCAR if an Asian finishes in the top 5 in points. Edited June 27, 2019 by Royale with Cheese 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wasn’t a role player, who was?!? Outside of buffalo and the lett family, I’d venture not terribly well known. that play was likely legendary even if he’s not though The op did say Bills legend, no?

Where and by whom is the proclamation of Beebe as legend? 8 minutes ago, Royale with Cheese said: If you're white and you're the fastest guy on the field in 95% of the games you play in....you're a legend.
