1970, Week 5

This week we discuss Gerry Mullins' offensive prowess, Larry Seiple's unauthorized big gamble, Billy Kilmer's throwing ability (and socks), and once again, Stats Symmetry.

This week we discuss Billy Kilmer's toughness, the obscure Paul Staroba, Mike Phipps' hat, controversies surrounding the Immaculate Reception; the strange story of the game ball; and a heartbreaking Niners loss. Quote of the week: "West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, that's where I saw bloodsucking monkeys." Intro-Outro music: "Gut Pride," by Sam Spence.

This week we discuss the final regular season games of several future Hall of Famers; the Hall's diss of Lemar Parrish; the woeful play of Ed Baker; Larry Wilson's legacy; stats symmetry as usual; two running backs missing 1,000 yard seasons by less than 10 yards; and the great passing combination of Widby to Nitschke. Quote of the week: "I don't wanna know how to find out about enjoying gum chewing without any teeth." Intro-outro music: "High Stakes," by William Loose.

This week we discuss Chip Myers, two Garrisons; really, really, really cold weather; and a whole lotta stats symmetry. Quote of the week: "Don't they know he's a saint?" Intro-Outro music is "Duel in the Dust" by Sam Spence. 

This week we discuss the versatile and valuable Preston Pearson and Walt Garrison, even more "little used" players, the changing of the guard in the AFC Central, and wonder just who is the Gingerbread Man. Quote of the week: "I stopped tucking in my shirts twenty years ago." Intro-outro music is "Splitsville," by William Loose. 

This week we discuss titles of Bill Loose pieces, Jack Mildren, little used players (again), a history wipeout of the Eagles by the Giants, and losers scoring 10 points. Quote of the week: "I don't think Art Malone went to the Abramowicz School of Celebrating." Intro-outro music: "Beat Documentary 7." (at least I think that's what it's called)

This week we discuss last second field goals, Lavonne Bebler Johnson's feature, "If, by Rudyard Kipling," Bill Brown's big play, and a historic trifecta by the Vikings. Quote of the week: "I wanna know about the Charles Manson photographer on the sidelines." Intr-Outro music: "Travelin' Tune, by Sam Spence.

This week we discuss George Allen's favorite frozen dessert, the final TDs of a couple of HOFers, The Other Larry Brown, and just who the heck is Kent Lyle Birdley? Quote of the week: "Douglass gets his helmet knocked off. My god, one of these days, his head's going to be in there with it." Intro-outro music is "Hit the Hole," by William Loose. 

This week we discuss the underrated Carroll Dale, the totally obscure (but never-to-be-broken record-holder) Boris Shlapak, Joe Kapp's trailblazing off the field, and lots of missed field goals.
