My favorite player as a kid, his legacy grew with stories like this:

"Cliff Christl told my favorite story about Carr in the Journal Sentinel. In 1977, during grass drills and sprints, third round draft pick, Rick Scribner, threw up on the field. Carr stood over the rookie screaming, 'Look at me! I smoke three packs of cigarettes a day. I drink whiskey all day. And here’s this 21-year-old rookie barfin’ peas.'”

From John Maxymuk's "Packers Past Perfect" blog:
