I've read about an exchange, maybe it never really took place, between Huff and Brown.

On play one, Huff stops Brown cold, and tells him Brown, you stink.

On play two, Brown runs for like a 50 yard TD, turns around, and yells, hey Huff, how do I smell from here?

LOL Sounds like him. He caught a TD and threw one in the game my father took me to.

I remember you as a bigger guy, Jay!

Back in the day when the Giants and the Browns met regularly, the Brown-Huff encounters were classics!

He was a unique individual!

RIP
