Actually, I do miss ol' Injun Joe. Dem wuz da days.

I have the longest interception return that was not a TD NYJ safety Marcus Maye, 104 yds vs. Denver 2018. Last play of the game. He zig-zagged all over the field and was finally tackled at the 1-yd line, so he probably actually ran 150 yds. Correct and it was one hecka of a hustle play by Sutton to...

First ballot, no doubt.

Miner left Canada after he messed up his right knee and Calgary cut him. Pittsburgh signed him with the understanding that they'd take care of the medical expenses. I believe he was the last player cut by Buddy Parker just before the '59 season started. Miner had just reinjured his knee in an exhibi...

Reading this thread has me thinking fondly back to my old APBA playing days. Nobody rated higher than a 5 on those cards, and beery arguments with my buddy Gary over some QB (Brodie? Morrall? Hadl?) being rated a 3 one season. Played a few games while eating Cheetos. Orange thumb prints all over the...
