Re: The Punt, Pass and Kick Library Book Series

A memory I have is that there is a pic of the Skins, after winning the 1942 Championship, celebrating in their locker room. I was convinced, with 100% certainty, that one of the players pictured was Sonny Jurgensen in his "rookie" season. :lol: May have to stroll over to e-bay to see if I...

Re: This is annoying

The accurate information is contained in the link by the OP above. January, February and March are not "Fall" months. Apparently, moving an entire franchise halfway across the country is a bit easier than changing that franchise’s on-field look. Demoff told The Times that the NFL requires ...

Re: Finally! Gloves...

And finally, the league will open the officiating crews to women and create an additional assignment. The wardrobe mistress will be responsible for monitoring uniform compliance and will have an iridescent green flag instead of yellow. I'm throwing a green flag for sexist post! Au contraire ; that ...

Re: Mt Rushmore of special-teams coaches, MtR of ST players

Mickey Walker for the early 1960's Giants. Chick Jagade for the Browns in 1951. Clifton McNeil for the Browns during the 1960's. Leroy Kelly, also for the Browns before Jim Brown retired.

Re: Kraft asked for 1st-rounder back

If you had lived through Victor Kiam, you would accept anything.

Kraft asked for 1st-rounder back
