OSUs defense identifies itself as the silver bullets and I've thought that's a good play on the school colors

Not sure 2 players make up a "unit" but I was always a fan of Oakland's Bash Brothers.

The Astro's Killer B's was fun and had more hall of famers but still think Bash Brothers was the better name.

No Fly Zone - Current Denver secondary

Talib and Harris has to be the best CB pairing in the salary cap era. Then you got Stewart and Ward as the safeties.
This is true, plus Bradley Roby as the 3rd man up at corner.

In fact, the duo of Chris Harris Jr and Aqib Talib is one of the best ever, during any era. What they are doing now is especially incredible when you take into consideration how the rules are bent towards the offense and receivers.

There were 3. That name actually started the one and only year the three played Triple-A ball for the Huntsville Stars.

Mark McGwire
Jose Canseco
Terry Steinbach

That was one fun year of watching baseball. Couple of years later Canseco got sent down to Huntsville for a rehab stint and got to play with his little brother for a couple of games.
