What are the odds tomorrow in San Diego?
How about- "Seventy-six million to a half" LOL
As the great Bill King once said on the chances of a long George Blanda field goal. (And he made it!!) to tie the game at the end.
I think he was the greatest football radio man ever.
Does anyone else remember some of his CLASIC quotes?

The ball, flipped forward, is loose! A wild scramble, two seconds on the clock...Casper grabbing the ball...it is ruled a fumble...Casper has recovered in the end zone!! The Oakland Raiders have scored on the most zany, unbelievable, absolutely impossible dream of a play! Madden is on the field. He wants to know if it's real. They said yes, get your big butt out of here! He does! There's nothing real in the world anymore! The Raiders have won the football game! The Chargers....they don't believe it. Fifty-two thousand people are stunned. This one will be relived forever!

The holly roller. I remember it well.
Just as Gary "Big Hands" Johnson was taking down stabler snake fumbles the ball. That was great. And the chicken died that day.

"If a hack poet or television script writer tried to write the kind of finishes the raiders have had this season they'd send him to the loony bin before it got past the first proof reader"
Bill King after the raiders shocked the jets in 1970.
I discovered football and became a raider fan that year at the age of 5. WHAT GREAT TIMES THOSE WERE!!!

Hey Reb, the man who tried bringing Stabler down was linebacker Woody Lowe. I have the entire game on DVD.

Captain,
My bad, but thanks for the info. I'm fourty-something now so the RAM is not what it used to be. LOL
Hey where does one get entire game videos? highlight reals suck because they always show the odd angles instead of the standard side point of view plus it's not the entire game. There are many i'd like to get.
