I went to the first NFL-AFL championship game, which I vaguely remember
as being in 1966 or 1967 on assignment for the newspaper. I didn't know
**** about football, really, and I still don't, but I went along with
the sports writing team to LA to do quickie interviews of KC area fans
who went out to see their team play Green Bay. I was "good" at
approaching folks and getting quotes from them. I didn't see that much
of the game, but I know the Chiefs were slaughtered.

That was the first and last pro football game I watched. I only remember
a couple of the players' names from those days, but they were
biggies...Bart Starr and Ray Nitschke for Green Bay and Len Dawson for
the Chiefs.


Years ago while on a business trip (I think late-80's) I was standing in
line at the ticket counter at Baltimore International airport. Guy in
line in front of me turned around to look at something and I realized it
was Johnny Unitas. He was already somewhat hobbled over and moved with
some difficulty. I remember looking up stats on him after that
indicated he was 6'1" in his playing years. Definitely must have shrunk
in retirement because I was almost a head taller than him.

My other ancient football memory was from your neck of the woods ... Les
Shaw's restaurant. The Detroit Lions and the New York Giants were in
town to play an annual pre-season exhibition game. I worked at Les
Shaw's at the time as a busboy and the owner invited me to have
breakfast on game day with the Lions who had reserved the place for the
pre-game meal. Sat between Joe Don Looney and some other huge player
who's name I can't remember.


The Albee Booth game. I never went to one. Went to les Shaw's once...too
expensive for a teenager and his date. We went to jimmies or chuck's or
al's or Pepe's.



Whoops. Albe, not Albee. I was thinking of Edward Albee.

You should be congratulated for your remarkable behavior this afternoon. You were very gentlemanly.
Kind of nice, isn't it?

The John flushes his head...

Why would you feel the need to say that?
Wait a minute...it's Sunday when you love to ramp up your instigating and agitating.

I guess it is like a fast food "shake". Once you see them made, you
don't ever want one again.

Herring, piece of **** that he is, can't control himself. No wonder he

Hmmm, popovers. Now you've done it. I'll be on a popover quest and
don't think there's anywhere in Florida where I can get one. First I
ever had was at the Harborside Inn at Edgartown, Mass in the summer of
1971 before they converted it to a resort. My last popover "fix" was
at the Jordan Pond House in Acadia Park, Maine back before the fire.
Their's are the best anywhere in my opinion.

Agree. I kept wondering 'where are the apples?'.

Because he was exceptionally well-behaved. Didn't you think so?

Who's the asshole that said I liked Trump? I think he's a narcissistic asshole. But, I still think
he's better than the alternative.

I met Fran Tarkenton as a kid. It was a book signing with my parents.

My best sport thing was meeting Mickey Mantle in the O'Hare American
Airlines VIP bar. It was Mick, another guy and me at a high top. We
were there for about an hour before it was time for our planes. The
other guy was a baseball nut and they did most of the talking. It was
interesting tho for a young kid like me. (~22). I grew up watching the
Yankees murder the Washington Senators. He was just retired and
pondering what was next. He had lots of people offering him stuff.
In those days the drinks were free in the VIP bar and we took
advantage of it. Mick was a drinking man ;-)
I also got a couple of minutes with Billy Kilmer and Sonny Jurgenson
in a bar in Alexandria when they recognized the girl I was with (old
friend) and called us over but that was just your typical "how you
doing" sort of conversation. They were both **** faced too.
Seems to be a pattern there.
