Green Bay - Atari Bigby is a fighter. Even his name - Atari - loosely translates to mean "attack" in Japanese.

So it didn't seem off the wall that when discussing his playing style, the third-year Green Bay safety borrowed a line from the film "300":

"The greatest honor is to die in battle."

Bigby laughed and must have felt the need to explain.

"It's a macho thing."

Actually, it's a competition thing. For all his scrapping, the 25-year-old undrafted free agent might have landed in a battle for a starting job.
