I've been studying old films and photos of NFL games in the 1933 and 1934 timeframe. The FIRST official NFL Championship game was won by the Chicago Bears vs. the NY Giants. The game was played at Wrigley Field in November, 1933.

That was the leather helmet era. Players did NOT use their heads to make contact back then. When they made a tackle, they turned their head to the side, put their shoulder into the runner's midsection and turned their face away from the contact.

My point is this: if the NFL prohibits all future head contact because it thinks it needs to do this to save the game, then, pro football will survive.

THIS era of using the helmeted head to administer hammer-blows probably should end, for the good of the game.

Got some delicious fried chicken this weekend.

Funny

LOL. Hell I'm down 'wit some yard bird!

Are you sure about that?

. . . well, I do have a flexible schedule, am reliable and courteous, but I'm not sure if being a lifelong Lions fan qualifies me as "not crazy" . . . plus, you guys aren't on the schedule next year . . . guess we'll have to meet up in the NFC Championship Game.

go Lions.

. . . hahaha! Ingenious, why couldn't we think of something like that (in Detroit)?

I have to answer for Halo, since he isn't an Italian American...LOL
Not much difference.....all the traditional foods plus olive salad, pasta, and Italian cookties....definitely Italian cookies....and a little mafia drama (just joking on the mafia part).

What is the difference between Italian American Christmas & another type of American Christmas?

What foods do you have?

DO you still do ham & turkey?

(I am truely sincere in these questions & Not trying to be a dick!!)

Haha! Funny that he is proud of that site. He needs the checklist we give my teachers....their sites are much better and they do them themselves!

If it was at critical mass then, I can't imagine it now, Halo!

Great blog.

Now thats funny

Equipment Manager Illustrated magazine?

As I understand it Miles don't fire people but encourage them to find a new job?

Gary Crotchton is leaving though ...

Good. I have been down on Miles myself at times when strange plays has been called o even stranger clock management decisions have bn made. However he is one of the best in the business. If LSU only can get the QB position solidified there will be another National championship.
