reddogblitz Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Loved him being a QB and #21. With WRs and DBs and LBs now wearing all the good QB numbers maybe one of them will pick a number in the 20s. My condolences to his family and fans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 That picture gives new meaning to the phrase “just rub some dirt on it”. RIP: John Hadl…remember him well. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Coot Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 The old AFL greats are dying off. AS for the field, those grass / dirt fields didn't produce any ACL injuries. Plus they are softer to land on and no rug burns. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrities you enjoyed watching perform passing away. Just think of the icons lost in the last couple of years: John Madden, Eddie Van Halen, Bette White, Bill Russell and now Christine McVie. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargent Hulka Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) 13 hours ago, slipkid said: My first Bills game! RIP. Mine too, I think? October 17, 1966. 17-17 tie with San Diego. That's the game where kicker Booth Lusteg (a UConn product) missed three field goals, including a 23 yarder to win the game, with six seconds left, after the Bills came back from a 17-0 deficit.

Haslett_Stomp Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 RIP. My family lived in the Dallas area for a year in either 1973 or 1974. My dad and I went to a Cowboys vs Rams game and the guy sitting behind us screamed "Get to Hadl !" the entire game. Fond memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyBatty is alive Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 A little Hadl trivia. He was also a punter and played DB at Kansas. He held the record for the longest Kansas punt for deacades at 94 years and longest int for a td at 98 yards. He lead all college football in punting on year at over 45 yards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never NEVER Give-up Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 16 hours ago, Nextmanup said: The field looks like it's in great shape! Yeah!! Why don't we have natural turf in Buffalo? If we had that turf - and it froze in Nov-Dec-January - all the players would scream for an artificial surface! Hadl was one of my favs - & #21 at QB was so strange back in the day. RIP & thanks for the great memories! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 RIP! Had a heck of a career in the AFL. San Diego was a power house with him at the helm. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
