Dave Lapham and Lemar Parrish were appreciative and, at times, emotional while talking to reporters Wednesday about being the newest members of the Cincinnati Bengals Ring of Honor. Lapham spoke for 26 minutes about his long Bengals career that included 10 seasons as a player and his upcoming 40th in the broadcast booth as the team’s radio analyst. Parrish talked for 17 minutes about his time in Cincinnati, which surprisingly was cut short in 1977 when the team traded him after he went to four consecutive Pro Bowls and six in his first eight season. Here are some of the other most interesting things Parrish and Lapham had to say after the team announced they will be part of the fifth induction class to the Ring of Honor.
