Mike Ditka worries his role as a spokesman for a treatment of male sexual dysfunction is eclipsing his legacy as a successful player and coach, saying on HBO’s “Real Sports” to air this Tuesday:
“I believe that there’s a whole generation of people that don’t remember that I did play football, that I was a pretty good player,” Ditka says. “Don’t remember that I coached the Bears. They have no idea.
“They wouldn’t know if I was a tight end or a back or a rear end.”
For the record, Ditka was a tight end, although some of his old players might argue that he was a rear end too.
