I'm generally not one to reflexively criticize all things modern, but I must agree on how sporting events have gotten. At Twins games, you literally cannot have a conversation with the person sitting next to you because the din between pitches/batters/innings is so oppressive and incessant. They ha...

Obviously, Akron Pro tackle Bill Preston (1920).

One thing I have wondered is what the NFL's plan if a teams entire roster gets wiped out due to a plane crash (which has happened on rare occasions in other leagues)? What would the league do to keep that franchise going and at least somewhat competitive? Watching the Packers “Legacy” documentary, ...

Didnt Franco and Rocky do it as well in the 74' AFC Champ game but Rocky had a late negative run that put him at 98 yards? Yes, there were actually quite a few instances in which the second RB had like 95 yards. Yes, Hornung (105) and Taylor (96) in the 1965 championship game against the Browns com...
