Buftex Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 12 hours ago, WhoTom said: I was playing sandlot football in the early-to-mid 70s. The Bills had a really good running back - Orenthal, something or other - whose name was uttered whenever someone broke off a big run. On passing plays, it was Fergie to Chandler. I was a dumb kid, around the same time...I still get teased to this day for playing alone, on the front lawn saying "OJ passes it to Simpson" 7 hours ago, Chandler#81 said: Great memory! Ernie ‘No D’. Along with MacAdoo, Heard, McMillan, Randy Smith, Bob Kauffman. I still hate John Y. Brown!? Randy Smith was always my guy! (see my avatar) Speaking of Randy, can any other old-timer confirm for me, that Randy Smith once recorded a song called "McAdoo"? I distinctly remember the lyrics "Who has the sweetest shot in the game.?" Followed up by a deep baritnone "MAC-A- DOO MACA-DOO MACADOO...BIG MAC, BIG MAC". Very funky song... Anyone else remember this? I have searched the internet a number of times over the years, can't find any evidence...but I know it was real. I would love to hear that again... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Process Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 My son in law is a huge Brady fan. Just yesterday we were visiting helping out with a plumbing fix.....upon completion he attempted to high five my daughter. She turned away at just the right moment leaving his hand awkwardly hanging out there. I just couldn't help it.....I said "Dude I think you've just been Brady-ed". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I’d ask you to hum a few bars, but it’s Sunday, and.... But I met Randy a few times. He shopped at the Topps Supermarket I worked at on NFB in NT. He was kinda easy to spot with his height and huge ‘fro’.. Always gracious and kind to everybody! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 On 7/21/2018 at 5:58 AM, The Process said: As a kid, when we were playing sports in the empty field, basketball in the driveway, hockey at the creek, my friends and I would call out a players name as if they were them. Example: I just threw a perfect pass to my buddy...and yell out "oh yeah....JIM KELLY". Showing my age here, but when someone doinked a basketball of the backboard or shot an air ball....all my friends would yell out...HUMMER!!!! What's your player....and why.....? Ahh, the Pride of Princeton, John Hummer. Our Braves got screwed by how they ran the expansion draft back then. We got the 15th overall pick in a draft that had Bob Lanier, Pete Maravich, Dave Cowens in the early rounds. Expansion teams got slotted after existing teams. Even so, as a little kid I wanted Calvin Murphy, who went 2 picks later (Tiny Archibald went later too). HUMMER! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) Freddy 'the Mad Bomber' Hilton "from downtown" was popular on the outdoor court near me.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 “Jordan!” with the tongue hanging out was popular on the b-ball courts when I was a kid. I wonder how many kids bit their tongues off doing this back in the day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
