Re: Overtime margin of victory

When I read the intro paragraph of this post, my immediate thought was "no way that's all possible.". But sure enough. Very interesting!

Re: PFHOF busts

Great question. I don't THINK so. (But I don't know for sure) I only say that because the times I've visited the Hall over the years I've noticed it seems like the older busts seem a little more worn. Probably after years of people touching them and patting them on the head. Also the newer ones seem...

Re: 1991-92 World League

Get an Ireland franchise in there! I believe the Rooneys are trying to drum-up even-more NFL-interest there! The Dublin Brewers! Guinness Stadium, perhaps! Their colours could be whatever the exact shade-of-black the Guinness Beer is and whatever the exact colour of its...Head! A capital 'D' on the...

Right or wrong, Adrian Peterson has always seemed like a 21st century version of Eric Dickerson to me.

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL

I never like rules that involve mind reading. Speaking of which... Well, not necessarily mind reading but an official having to determine what WOULD have happened instead of what actually happened.... The whole receiver would have landed in bounds if he wasn't pushed so we'll call it a catch. I alw...

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL

The Tuck Rule game ... damn the ruling and interpretation of the "incomplete pass" ... Brady clearly brought the ball down from a passing motion making him a RUNNER who fumbled the ball into the Raiders hands. No way that was an intended pass. It was a correct interpretation of a dumb rul...

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL

Speaking of the above post about Cowboys throwback uniforms. I think the first year we saw any sort of throwbacks was in 1994 for the 75th anniversary. Here's the dumb thing I remember though... In team's feeble attempts to create retro helmets, they just peeled current logos off and slapped on old ...

Re: "Name the Team" trivia part II

For what it's worth, the team I had in mind was the 1969 Broncos.

Re: "Name the Team" trivia part II

Name the team.. This team had exactly one future HOFer on its roster. It's head coach won a league championship with a previous team. A rookie cornerback went on to an over decade long career with 35+ interceptions. 1969 Bengals (?) I was thinking of a different team but the 1969 Bengals would also...
