Punching Bag Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Former Raider Quarterback and Clovis native Daryle Lamonica passes away at 80 https://kmph.com/news/local/former-raider-quarterback-daryle-lamonica-passes-away-at-80 Daryle Lamonica dies at 80 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/04/21/daryle-lamonica-dies-at-80/ (No I am not turning off my AdBlock to support you) Former Raiders QB Daryle Lamonica Dies at Age 80 https://www.usnews.com/news/sports/articles/2022-04-21/former-raiders-qb-daryle-lamonica-dies-at-age-80 Quote The Raiders acquired Lamonica in a trade from Buffalo in 1967 and he was immediately the perfect fit for the vertical offense owner Al Davis coveted for his franchise. Nicknamed the “Mad Bomber,” Lamonica made an immediate impact in Oakland after starting only four games in four seasons with the Bills. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/nfl/former-raiders-qb-daryle-lamonica-dies-at-age-80/2022/04/21/75b064e0-c1a8-11ec-b5df-1fba61a66c75_story.html Quote Lamonica was an All-Pro again in 1969 when he led the AFL with 3,302 yards passing and 34 touchdowns. The 34 TDs still stand as the franchise’s single-season record more than a half-century later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was really him... he didn't post All that much, but he did. Anyone using an actual players name had to be "certified" to post as such, same with Chris Brown for example. Sad day for sure. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually not 100% true The person with the Billy Shaw username was not Billy Shaw I saw a lot of people ask him and he told me himself he was not.. so that's one at least I do know there were some ex bills on the site but the Billy Shaw told me he wasn't him Edited April 21, 2022 by Buffalo716 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
