I believe Andy is a great selection! It's going to be an emotional first game/year!

I love the bias and complaining. Still have not got over Stabler's "run in the mud 1967". Bammer tackled our would be tackler in the backfield and blatantly so. 

Announcers complained, Coach Jordan complained. I still complain. 

Congrats to Andy. Great person and sure he is honored and humbled. Feel that Rod would be pleased. Who knows, maybe he is. 

I was at that game. It was plain as day.

Several years ago (2004 to be exact) I met the guy who was bammer's center on that play. Sevens? Stewart? He said that they had been told during game preparations that the play wouldn't work unless they could get Gusty Yearout out of the mix and the plan was to hold him from the get-go. Their TE (Dixon)? was the designated holder, it didn't get called and that's that. Some measure of revenge: By the time I met this guy he had four daughters and all four went to Auburn.
