At first it was 'sorcerer' that made me think of Starling and of all people Dennis Milton. Who reminded me of Hopkins. The date and "Terrible" and exact result made me think Brown, then 'executed' brought me again to Hopkins and how Brown was all down hill after that bad beating. The trainer saying he needed a roll through me...is that an Atlas kitchen metaphore? Also Atlas spoke highly of Brown this last FNF. It was a good one dude, the exact year may have bullseyed it, maybe a decade...era rather? Cheers.
