Let's Remember Some Guys

Is that Bart behind him?

Sure looks like it.

If memory serves, the Packers were honoring the 1982 team when that picture was taken, and Starr was head coach through 1983.

Just because...

I was home on leave and had tickets to that game but my grandma passed away and gave them up.  It is so cool to hear Jim and Max calling a game. Man such good memories.

That “Lambeau Leap” game was the coldest I have ever been in my life, but I was happy to have been there to see that.

Trivia without looking it up: who was the starting TE for the SB45 champs post Finley injury?  I got stuck on this last night.

Quarless?

Donald Lee

Oh, yeah. He was probably still around too. And I think it was Crabs rookie season.

crabtree caught a td pass in the wildcard game at philly

Quarless was on that team.  I thought they drafted him after the SB but I must have been thinking of Richard Rodgers.  And I thought Crabtree came after also but I was wrong again.

Jim Taylor once spilled boiling water on his foot and was out for a bit.

Not boiling water but grease from a fire on the stove.

I was thinking Quarless was around before that, maybe even playing with Favre. Nope, he was a rookie in 2010.

Could have been worse: they could have been injured by fondue.

I don't think James Lee was mentioned.  Sherman traded two picks to move up for this bust.  Spent most of his time on IR.  But that did not stop X4 for having a thread on him.  I think he was a descendent of Robert E. Lee and John Lee.  None of them panned out either. 

Alvin Lee managed to get in a few good licks.

Ringo and Gros for Caffey.  

Throw in a Dan Grimm and I’m there:

Fun fact, back in the day when a guy got traded, they just kept him in the previous year’s uniform:

It ain’t right:

DeMond Parker and his "hot feet" vs. Bears Dec. 5, 1999

19 Attempts  113 yards 2 TD

Just wrong:

Wish I had one of these...

A little research shows Ken Stabler’s estate sold one:

No thanks, We’ve already go one.

(aside) I told them we’ve already got one.

Carl Ford, drafted 2003.  Was supposed to be the next late round small school Donald Driver.

Terrance Murphy, drafted 2005.  Was having a great rookie camp.  Neck injury?

I said I wish I had one, not that I wanted to buy one.

I shall say good night with one of the greats:

Dick Shiner v Dick Trickle.  

Now there’s a debate to be had.  Best name ever.

Just try not to get Feyda all hot and bothered.  Or as a certain pilot once said in Top Gun “don’t tease me”

As a fan of corners

Tim Lewis, Craig Newsome, Mike McKenzie

Have to mention William Henderson and the huge shoulder pads.  One of my all time favorite players along with Leroy Butler
