In a flip of fate George was celebrating his 46th birthday but he looked 64.

Loser's share.

If Sherm Plunkett had just stayed on one more year w/ the Jets...

Along the same lines as not knowing who Matson was, my spouse hosted a small gathering of teachers at our house last year. This included our high school's 40 year old football coach. While talking w/ him it became evident he'd never heard of Don Hutson.

I rest my case. The Bills should be embarrassed. The only champion on that team is Hamlin.

On waking, I don't think Hamlin was able yet to grasp the severity of the situation. He probably didn't even know what day it was.

[quote="Lee Elder") IMHO, you are ignoring the feelings of the other team. Cincinnati's players did not want to continue either. Hamlin left the stadium with his life still hanging in the balance and nobody on either team wanted to play.[/quote] Good point. Why would Bengals players be any...

I think Blanda's take might be the definition of polishing a turd. I could be wrong.

Agutter was also in "Walkabout" (1971).

Stidham played pretty well, carving up the SF secondary for most of the day. Yet again we see another double-digit Raider lead lost. It's a theme this year.

I'd love to see a book on the top 25 games from the AFL.
