It makes me feel old since I remember his playing days. I also remember when the Nashua Telegraph was delivered door to door in my neighborhood less than ten years ago. Didn't have a subscription back then, still can't be bothered even though I'm a retired guy with time on my hands, but neighbors still do have the 'digital edition' which is now the 'only edition'. As low as 36 cents a day? Meh. I'd rather keep the 36 cents a day.

I used to deliver the damn thing. I didn't even open, saw the link, and thought, oh, the local link....argh.

Landry, Farr, Sanders, Barney, Lucci, Karras, LeBeau. Detroit had some good players in that era. Played outdoors on grass. The best Thanksgiving Day game.
