[B]Vegas highlight:[/B] Drove former Redskins coach Norv Turner from a $25 blackjack table last April at Mandalay (when the Coach was winning, no less) by looking at the ceiling and screaming, "The Coach ... is ... [I]killing[/I] me." This happened after Turner was winning big and inexplicably turned conservative, staying on "16" three different times when the dealer had a "10" showing. If you know anything about Turner's tenure in Washington, you can attest to how funny this story is. I swear to God, it happened.

(This also led to Hopper's famous theory that NFL owners should play blackjack with prospective coaches before they actually hire them, just to make sure they're getting the right guy. As Hopper always says, "You can learn a lot about a person when you're playing blackjack with them." In the words of Kurt Angle, "It's true, it's true.")
