    That's good news to me, if true. How do you reach that conclusion?

    What really sank us is Pugh's short arms. If he had at least normal length limbs we'd probably have enough poundage to make the top 5. Dang!

    Bambi is a male. Furthermore, he was Lance Alworth's very appropriate nickname.

    Throwing in the towel tonight, but overall having a remarkable season. If Jeter ever gets back we should have plenty of exciting NY sports to keep us happy till September.

    Yes. That's one of the reasons Montana was so great -- he almost always laid the ball perfectly in the receiver's hands. The receiver never had to break stride, and therefore picked up lots of YAC.

    It pretty much depends on how pretty your definition of 'pretty' is. Depending on the tone of voice and accompanying gesticulations (if any) 'pretty' can mean anything from 'very' to 'sort of'. ...

    The fact that the 'collapse' always happens in the second half says to me that: (1) we have a superior team that plays well and puts up a fine W/L record early, but that (2) the rest of the league...

    He certainly has a remarkable name. 'Dieu seul' means 'God alone', or perhaps 'Lonely God' in French. Hard to pronounce, too. Those 'eu's have no English equivalent. A very rough approximation...

    Surely almost all QBs are 'ambidextrous' enough to be able to hand the ball off safely with either hand. On the other hand (foot?), right-handed RBs are usually more comfortable going to their right...

    You're right about Schofner's unsuitable body type. He was lean and lanky and was more of a long strider than an agile-footed defender. Guess that's one reason he stuck to O with us. We could...

    I'm not sure why you think Schofner was slow. He had enough speed to get open deep consistently, and he was our lone deep threat for several years, after several very good years with the Rams. As...

    Del Schofner was another guy we didn't draft -- we got him in a trade with the Rams. He was a two-way player with the Rams (DB), but he played very little, if any, D for us.
