It goes without saying, but salute to Tommie on this prestigious honor.

***As good as he was on the field, Frazier also earned a reputation as a somewhat difficult personality for his teammates to get along with at times. Frazier said he was well aware of that reputation, but said he always was and always will be far more concerned with winning than being the most liked."I wasn't the most liked guy, but I can promise you this: when I stepped on the field I gave 100 percent and I led by example, and those guys fed off that," Frazier said. "To me, leaders don't necessarily need to be liked, but they can lead and direct and be respected. That's more important to me. I had the mentality and the attitude that I wanted to win, and I don't know any team out there that wants their starting quarterback to have the mentality where he's just out there playing the game and couldn't care less whether he wins or loses.
"I wanted to win. Did I tick some of my teammates off? Yes. But tell me any great leader out there - look at Michael Jordan. He's the best guy to ever play the game of basketball, and you hear stories about how he wasn't liked. I don't worry about being liked, because when you're on that field, it's not about who likes you or not, it's about you trying to do whatever you can to make sure your team wins."
