I recall the name, but not much else.
From the NY Times -
I especially like the last bit from this obit -Sammy Baugh, the Washington Redskins quarterback who was one of football’s greatest passers and a pivotal figure in transforming the National Football League from a plodding affair into a high-scoring spectacle, died Wednesday in Rotan, Tex. He was 94.
His death was confirmed by the Weathersbee-Ray Funeral Home of Rotan.
In the fall of 1937, Baugh joined the Redskins, who were newly arrived in Washington from their former home in Boston. N.F.L. players of that era butted leather helmets in largely dull encounters, the single- and double-wing offenses almost always running the ball.
Baugh had displayed his passing prowess as an all-American at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth. In his first season with the Redskins, Slingin’ Sammy, as he would be known, provided a preview of football’s modern era with his brilliant passing at tailback. He took Washington to the N.F.L. championship by throwing for three touchdowns in a 28-21 victory over the Chicago Bears in the title game on frozen turf at Wrigley Field.
For all of Baugh’s exploits, a tale from his rookie season endures. It is evidently apocryphal, but its telling reflects the awe in which Baugh was held for his uncanny passing skills and self-confidence.
Baugh was taking the field for his first practice session with the Redskins when his coach, Ray Flaherty, handed him the football.
“They tell me you’re quite a passer,” Flaherty is said to have remarked.
“I reckon I can throw a little,” Baugh replied.
“Show me,” Flaherty said. “Hit that receiver in the eye.”
To which Baugh supposedly responded, “Which eye?”
Thank you Santa for knocking the Cowboys out of the playoffs- and thank you for giving T.O. 6 catches and over 100 yards in a loss.
Please let the Broncos beat the CHargers and please let Al Davis get better so I can continue to make fun of the way he runs the team!
Go playoffs!
I'll drink to that!Dumb me - I didn't watch the Eagles/Cowboys game yesterday, since I thought the Eagles were going to lose. I found out this morning that I missed one heck of a game! So they made the playoffs, but I'm not going to get over enthused, since I really have doubts that they will go much further.
At least Philadelphia came up with a winner this year - the Phillies!!!

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power
To know just when the hands will stop - on what day, or what hour.
Now is the only time you have, so live it with a will -
Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.
