Marc Spindler dropped in the 1990 draft. I think they had a TV crew at his home, too, which made it more agonizing.

The Cowboys losses to the Browns in the 1968 and 1969 were always perplexing to me. But Blanton Collier was a terrific coach. 1966 @ Eagles: Tim Brown had two long kickoff returns for touchdowns in a 24-23 defeat. 1975 Green Bay: inexplicably lost at home to a terrible Packer team. 1984 @ Bills: Bi...

Csonka in his prime; Butkus in his prime. Both have a full head of steam. Who survives the collision?

It's amazing how much litter (hot dog wrappers?) was on the field back in the day.
