fuji869 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 My father is 75 years old and was a fan of the Skins back in the Day of Sammy Baugh. I was at my parents place for Christmas and during the Bears / Packers Game he was going for the Packers. I did not really think he cared about the game, he really not follow football like in his younger years. I asked him why he was going for the Packers, he said "I am still upset about 73-0" 64 years is a long time to hold a grudge. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanCollins Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 To be honest, I'm unhappy that the Redskins Own that record (and the neg records in SB XVIII) and wished we could have inflicted 75-0 on the Cowboys last week. Oh but were to "classy" for that :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rincewind Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Yeah, 73-0 still hurts. Obviously i wasn't alive for it but my best friend constantly reminds me of it. My only condolence is that he is a Dolphins fan, and we witnessed the largest margin of victory in modern history together - the Jaguars (who he had hoped and prayed the Dolphins would play in the playoffs) whoopin' up on Miami 63-7 in the playoffs a few years ago. Plus, they wear those horrible Orange/Green unis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
