Bob Probert’s new book “Tough Guy”

author Posted by: jack on date Oct 21st, 2010 | filed Filed under: Sports Guy says...

We just got an advanced copy of Bob Probert’s book that he was working on entitled “Tough Guy.” Will be reading and posting tidbits from each chapter. Just started reading but the prologue gives you a detailed first hand account of what happened July 5th, 2010, the day Bob passed away. VERY, VERY SAD!

Chapter 9 – “Probe, I’ve had it with you. You don’t wash your underwear. You’re eating a hamburger, you’re not taking this serious, and I’ve just had it.” – Red Wings Assistant Coach Colin Campbell.

Wings dressing room…
Friend of Bob’s: “You’re the greatest.”
Campbell: “Why are you saying stuff like that to Probe? He’s a mess!”
Friend: “God gave him gifts. He’s the man”
Campbell: ” You’re right. God did make him, because no man could create such a piece of shit like this.”

So many great stories!!!
