The voting was close, which is not surprising, and Eller and Johes finished second and third, which'is-not surprising, either. But, when one considers that the Bear defense, as a whole, did not exactly lead the league 'n impregnability this season, the selection of Bulkus by his peers indicates, at least, the stature he enjoys among, them. "He is," says Bart Starr of the Green Bay Packers, "the most Intense player I have ever seen. Butkus IS -the Bear defense," The intensity which Starr describes has been a Butkus trademark since he joined the Bears five years ago. Bulkus, himself, 'admits his adrenalin bubbles to'a boil whenever he steps onto a football field.

He says there are even times during pregame warmups when he feels the urge to run across the field and start hitting people, Really, "I use the warmup period to get my blood Butkus says. "I look over at the other team warming up and I look for guys who are smiling or er Front Four i fooling around or acting Then I say to myself, 'Ah, he thinks he's going lo have an easy lime today, That sets me off and the more I the hotter I get. When the game starts, I'm i-eady to DIOR BUTKUS NFL defensive player of year.
