Earl Campbell is the only player I can recall that played like Brown.
Yes Campbell was great in his day but sorry still must go with the original freak from the 60s!!
No doubt Brown is at the top when talking about running backs. Brown was also a civil rights activist, one that cares. Below are some quotes from Jim Brown.
A liberal will cut off your leg so he can hand you a crutch.

When you have a problem, rules don't solve your problem. It's caring and education.

Even though the money is great and the fame is great, you still have a lot of disenfranchised young men that are participating in the NFL that are not very happy. A lot of them are very bitter. A lot them are very angry. So many of them have had no fathers and no home life, and basically, no education.

Martin Luther King was a misguided leader. He worked to be recognized as the leader of black America when what black America needs isn't a leader, it is education.

Money has changed today's black athletes. Those who have the ability as African men to bring a change in a community that so desperately needs it are concentrating only on their own careers, some charities and how much money they can make.

The social issues outside of football are not as defined as they were earlier, when integration took place and certain rights were legislated. The Civil Rights movement is over. Individuals can buy homes wherever they want, travel first class wherever they want, eat wherever they want.

I believe that is a question that I should be asking you since you made the accusation.

This is what separates him from the others what he did off the field.He was very outspoken when it came to how he wanted to be treated as a human being!!!

Well, for you it is easy...it creates a conflict within you when you talk about respecting Barry White's accomplishments.
