so rusty greer like numbers and an overrated homerun with a catchy name get you in?

If every 3rd-string football player gets in, he gets in.

Coryell should be out too. This thing should be way more exclusive.

When I was a wee lad, I went to a charity fundraiser in Fort Worth one time where Thomson and Branca were the featured speakers. It was a good.

It appears I'm destined to outlive them all. Gary Rossington is next!

Methinks someone has fantasies of inspiring a group of ne'er do well Denton County high school musicians... They will be known as Hooby Gooby.

My favorite of the old time Raiders.

He went through a stretch in the late 60s where he would do something remarkable every other week to win a game. Sometimes it would be kicking a straight-on field goal, sometimes it would be taking over for an injured Lamonica and QB them to a win.

If the Raiders were on NBC on Sundays, I'd watch.

you'd put Coryell in but not Blanda?

Sweet Greggo · **Posted:** Mon Sep 27, 2010 4:30 pm

Agreed. The early 70s Raiders were badass! LaMonica, Blanda, Otis Sistrunk and his shaved head, Jim Otto... The Raiders were a fun bunch to watch back then - especially when they played the Chiefs. Great grudge rivalry.

Blanda is a definite IN!

Never heard of him. In other news:

Tony Curtis is dead dead dead

Tony Curtis is one of the old school Hollywood assholes who were so offended by the very fucking concept of Brokeback Mountain that he led the charge for Crash winning Best Picture.

May his ass burn in hell for that.

That's because the subject matter hit a little too close to home for Bernard Schwartz. From what I've heard, Bernard spent some time biting the cushion of the casting couch himself and enjoyed his role as Josephine in Some Like It Hot a bit too much.

He was so gay, he fathered a girl with a penis.
