2. I thought he, like Abe Vigoda, was already dead.

That was a good run he had then. RIP

I (think I ) remember what he was quoted as saying about an early missed touchdown pass/catch in the 73-0
slaughter the Chicago Bears put on the 'skins in the title game. A reporter asked him if that possible touchdown would have
made a difference.

"Yeah, it would have been 73-7." was the gist of the quote.

:patriot:

I will find your post there later, though. Must go to work now.
