Come on, today they all use synthetic drugs to turn them from scrawny beta males to 300 pound whiny divas. The phony muscle from today is way more impressive than real grit.

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) I think they also dug ditches and welded during the off-season for extra income! Ok, maybe that’s a stretch, but still, they definitely weren’t that far removed from that Edited November 22, 2018 by NoHuddleKelly12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PearlHowardman Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Fast forward to the lousy field that the Buffalo Bills were playing on in the late 80s to early 90s and you'll see why they won four straight AFC Championships. I have no idea why the NFL allowed the Bills to have such a bad field. A definite disadvantage to any opponent playing a Bills home game. And people think that the Patriots cheated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vorpma Posted November 22, 2018 Author Share Posted November 22, 2018 1 hour ago, vorpma said: American Football League played Thanksgiving Day games in each of its ten years of existence, 1960 - 1969. From 1960 through 1966, one AFL game was played every Thanksgiving. In 1967, 1968 and 1969, each Turkey Day had two AFL games. This was another AFL "fan favorite" that was lost in the "merger", along with the AFL's name and logo. The team with the best record in AFL Thanksgiving Day games? The lowly New York Titans played in the first three, and were 3 - 0. The Oakland Raiders were second best, with a 3 - 1 record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills4everNY Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 They probably had to wash their own uniforms after the game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
