1980s-90s: There's Crazy, and Then There's Charles Haley

Football History

Charles Haley marched to the beat of his own drum. That beat antagonized coaches and players alike, and may never be heard again as long as the NFL is operational. Stories about Haley's antics have now passed into legend, existing just within the outskirts of believability.

Author Jeff Pearlman documented some of these tales in his book: Boys Will Be Boys about the wild exploits of the 1990's Dallas Cowboys; in that sense, Haley fit right in. A castoff from the San Francisco 49ers (for reasons you'll soon find out) Haley was supposed to be a member of the team, but many on the team simply remember Haley's member.

Speaking about his book in 2008 on the Jim Rome show, Pearlman outlined a few infamous Haley stories that were relayed to him by teammates and coaches of Haley. Here are some of the most outrageous from that interview and a few others in no particular order:

1-"He was manic and he was on medication...took his medication sometimes, didn't take his medication sometimes depending on the day...everyone in the NFL knew, the guy was very unbalanced. And he shows up on the Cowboys and his first day there he's walking around the locker room naked with medical tape wrapped around his penis shouting, "I'm the last naked warrior, I'm the last naked warrior!"

2-"Whenever Jerry Jones would enter the room he would yell out, 'Master Jerry, Master Jerry!'"

3-"The first story I got about Haley was from Scott Case, the defensive back. He said he was in a meeting, one of his first days with the Cowboys having come over from Atlanta, and Haley's sitting behind him. Haley goes,'Hey Scott, turn around!'

Case goes, 'Charles, shut up.'

'Scott, turn around!'

'Charles, shut up!'

'Will you just turn around, I gotta show you something.'

So he turns around and Haley's penis is stretched across the desk."

4-"Chad Hennings, former air force pilot was a member of the Cowboys back then, and Haley used to ride Chad Hennings non-stop. And one day Hennings, who's this kind of quiet, low-key Christian conservative guy, grabs Haley around the neck and shoves his head out the window and says "If you fucking mess with me anymore I'm gonna kill you!"

5-"There's a famous story from San Francisco...he cut a hole in the roof of Tim Harris's convertible and peed on the steering wheel." (Haley has since denied this version of the story, claiming that he and Harris were friends and had been out eating and drinking. Upon returning drunk to their cars, he claimed he decided to pee in between Harris's car and another car, not inside of it. Believe what you will.)

6-"[Barry] Switzer actually sorta loved the guy because Switzer was a coach that would leave you alone and if you played well you played well, and Jimmy was that way too. He actually did ok with the Cowboy guys.

But in San Francisco, him and George Seifert, you know, they had a lot of trouble...In sort of his last straw as a 49er, one day he's in a team meeting and he's sitting backwards in his chair. And one of the coaches says, 'Haley, sit the right way in your chair,' and he says, 'fuck you, I'm not doing that.' And he says, 'Haley, sit right in your chair,' and he says, 'fuck you, I'm going to the bathroom,' comes back with a used piece of toilet paper and throws it at the coach. That was sort of the beginning of the end in San Francisco for Charles Haley."

**7-**From an interview in the 'No Huddle' podcast with former 49er Dexter Carter:

"Charles Haley didn't care who you were," Carter shared with hosts Al Sacco and Zain Naqvi. "He didn't care if you were a rookie. He didn't care if you were Joe Montana. He would get it to you verbally. If he wasn't picking on you, you were happy he didn't, and you would think it was funny. I saw him get on Joe Montana. Joe was very good at ignoring him, though.

"But there was one guy that nobody messed with. Charles didn't even mess with him. And when he messed with him, two weeks later, he was gone. And when I say 'gone,' he was given away to Dallas. Our best defensive player and he was given away to Dallas, who at the end of the day, helped take three rings off of my fingers. I could have had three more Super Bowl rings...But the day that he went at Jerry Rice, and Jerry went back at him, what transpired in that locker room that morning, led to two weeks later, the 49ers literally giving Charles away to their toughest competitor."

**8-**An excerpt from Boys Will be Boys by Pearlman:

"The reputation started with the penis—a fire hose of an organ that brought Haley more pride than any game-winning tackle. As he grew comfortable in the 49ers locker room, Haley would stroll up to an unsuspecting teammate, whip out his phallus, and repeatedly stroke it in his face. Players initially laughed it off. But Haley refused to stop.

He would jerk off in the locker room, in the trainer’s room. He’d wrap his hand around his penis, turn toward a Joe Montana or John Taylor, and bellow, “You know you wanna suck this!” or “You only wish you had this, baby!”

“Charles used to beat off in meetings while talking graphically about players’ wives,” says Michael Silver, who covered the 49ers for the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. “It got to the point of ejaculation.”

**9-**From a 1994 story by Dave Sell in the Washington Post:

"Haley was close to former 49er Ronnie Lott, who was allowed to leave under Plan B free agency in 1991. When the 49ers lost to Lott's Los Angeles Raiders, Haley was so enraged that Lott had to be summoned from the other dressing room. He arrived - clad only in a towel - to calm Haley (who had destroyed the locker room)."

10-In the words of fellow troublemaker Michael Irvin from NFL Films:

"Psycho problems. Charles...Charles was crazy for real."

Haley ended up getting more help and treatment for his bi-polar disorder, winning 5 rings (the most until TB came along) and finally being inducted into the Hall of Fame with over 100 sacks in 2014.(Tom Fox/Staff Photographer Dallas Morning News)
