Yes he does.



That lady stole his SB ring!

What a quality, decent, down-to-earth person!

can you imagine how dominating Finley would be if he were half the man William Henderson is? Thanks William! I remember a lot of your great moments but my fav is you drilling Ray Lewis in a game I suspected the Packers would struggle in. But it was the good bert that day and great effort from everyone.

This is how I will always remeber Big Will.



Catching a dump off pass in the flat and hurdling a CB trying to hit him low.

Thanks for the memories, William.

He's was and is all Aces. Thanks William for your efforts on/off the field.
Mr. Class

I think that was the '01 season, the years after the Ravens won the SB. I thought the Pack would struggle too, but it turned out they won pretty easily if I recall correctly.

Hendo is one of my favorites to wear the Packers uniform. I bet he can still bring it.

I met him a few years ago in the Lambeau parking lot before a game. Very down to Earth and looked like he could still play the game.

That...is a great pic!

I loved the play in 2001 when he ran Ray Lewis over.

Hendo is an all-timer.

I too remember him destroying Lewis in that game in 2000. Too bad we can't access any video of it other than what someone created as their avatar back then......

My favorite memory was off the field, on TV. He was a guest analyst for the draft and Kiper was bashing the Packers for their strategy and selections (obviously this was when TT was in charge). Hendo came on and quietly, respectfully, and logically, called Kiper out for being wrong most of the time, especially when he was drafted. Naturally, Hendo was never invited onto ESPN again, which is a shame.

I could swear I saw Mel Kiper on "NFL Live" this morning saying he'd pick Montee Ball in the first round.

That's quite the new fetish you have going there.

Montee pee in your creme brulee or something?

He was excellent on TV, but I guess former players who are thoughtful and articulate don't interest the networks.

Good article. One of my favorite Packers.

That and he probably wasn't a big enough "name." Why have a former fullback for the Green Bay Packers when you have some roided-up loudmouths who can't put a logical sentence together.

It was the year after the Ravens won the SB and claimed the best D of all time. I clearly remember 2 BAL fans who came on here and kept screaming that "you just don't understand how fast and physical the BAL D is until you see it in person", though with much more douche. Farb was lighting them up and the Packers were handling them very well all game until Randall Cunningham (what!) started bringing BAL back late in the 4th. Packers hang on for decisive win.

Wouldn't mind seeing photocopies of his newest drawings in Oshkosh.

Is he in the Packer Hall of Fame yet?

If not, why not?

He is. I remember him being inducted fairly recently, like within the last 2 or 3 years.

You'd think the guy who wrote the linked article would include that information in the article.

A co-worker originally from Baltimore brought me a newspaper clipping from that Packers/Ravens game, and I still recall the headline:
"Favre Shines Against A Dangerous Defense."

If memory still serves, I don't think the Packers were favored to win that game. Although we were potent on offense, the Ravens were expected to shut us down, and that was going to be that...
Packers vs Ravens

wow there's actually decent highlights of Favre tds from 2001 without ****ty rap music. Good off season watch. Ravens highlights start at 6 minutes in.

Part two (stop it at 8:45 and it's enjoyable):

We were definitely not expected to win, or even have a legitimate chance, for that matter. The buzz was that this was the best defense the league had seen in years, and we'd have no chance against them.

I remember going to watch the game at a theatre in south Minneapolis called the Suburban World, which was owned by Packer fans and broadcast the game on the movie screen every Sunday. I didn't have much hope, but man, there were a lot of happy Packer fans walking out onto Hennepin Avenue at around 3 o'clock that afternoon. One of the best games I ever saw Tom Rossley call; he had that D completely game-planned. Favre played a damned good game that day, too, if I recall correctly.

Yep, Ravens minus 1.5.

Of the dozen or so Packers games I've seen in person, this was by far the most fun. Favre was laser-focused (27-34-337-3-0), Bubba Franks scored a TD about 10 feet from where we were sitting, and the UW marching band played at halftime and in the "fifth quarter."
