I was a big ram fan while growing up...the first time i saw gabriel standing back in the pocket refusing to be tackled and watching deacon jones and merlin olsen chase down opposing qbs....i knew who my team was....i lived through the prothro years and then got excited again when chuck knox took over...seems like every year they went 12-2 and then lost to minnesota or Dallas in the playoffs. Then they finally made it to the super bowl in 79 even though they lost i was proud of my team. When they moved to st Louis i kind of chilled a bit. But anyway...the old yellow and blue uniforms made me reflect back...lol

....eagles missed a 48 yd fg on last play of regulation....taylor scored the games first td and had a long run in overtime period that helped lead to short fg to win the game...bednarik didnt get to sit on him this time...good tough game.
I think ill play the raiders and jets tonight ....then play the super bowl early in the week....i have 2 sets of dark jets....im using the more common 3 stripe jets this game....the one stripe jets were made in the first run hoglegs in late 1968 ...much harder to find....the white raiders were one of the rarest of all hogleg teams....i guess millions if boys bought the black jersey ones and not near as many bought the white jersey version.

Rats. Mus have been a later version than the '60 Packers if they beat the Eagles! 😊 Lombardi's Packers never lost another playoff game. Go Packers!

I’ve always wondered how you’ve managed to get the opposing teams in your upcoming games to pose for pictures without fights breaking out, or at least some trash talk... 😜

Over the years we have all been able to establish great rivalries, with teams, league coaches, and memories that we will treasure forever! What are yours and Why? Photos?
Because i play a tournament style and use the old divisions from the late 60s and early 70s to group the 1st and 2nd round games. Inevitably the raiders and chiefs and bears and packers usually meet at some point in every tournament. It allows me to continue these great rivalries for years to come. The great era of the NFL and Tudor live on.

Nice. I'm in it for the long haul. I've been playing pretty consistently since 1966 except for time off for school, work, getting married, kids, etc.😊 Because of that and the fact my games take so long to play, I'm only in my 7th season, but it keeps me busy and out of trouble, sorta. 😊
Ive found i get in to the mood to play 2 or 3 times a year...then in what i call my off season...lol...i pull the teams out and sometimes renumber...or search for spares or new teams...sometimes i buy teams just to compare to mine and maybe keep one player thst looks a little better for my set then resell the other 11.....i think thst us why so many of my teams have stayed in great shape...many i have had multiple teams of and just kept the best 11...it has been a very good hobby i have been able to enjoy...and i have got to talk to a lot of good people along the way like you ☺

Wow. That's a lot of Super Bowls! I'm heading toward my seventh! Glad to see the Packers won. Should be a good game between the Eagles and Packers and the Raiders and Bengals game should be interesting as well!
33 tournaments in about 15 years or so....i probably average 2 a year....i think that i got fired up when someone told me that tudor had started the forum again.....ill probably take a break for awhile at the conclusion of this one....typically it takes 25 games to play one tournament but i like it cause all of my 26 teams play at least one game...ive been having a lot of fun in the last couple months with the little teams.

Just for fun and curiosity i went back and looked at the past tournaments....in 32 super bowl tourneys ....of the 6 teams remaining with a shot at super bowl 33....the packers have been in 5 super bowls and won 3....the eagles have been in 1 and won 1......the raiders have been in 8 and won 2.....the jets have been in 8 and won 3......the bengals and patriots have never been in a super bowl.

Hoo Boy! The Eagles come through - lookin good in those old uniforms. Nice to see some of the really big names on both the Eagles and Steelers. Wow, if the Packers beat the 49ers, it could be the 1960 Championship game all over again - albeit now just the NFC championship. Verrrrrryyy Interesting!
I think if the packers do win...ill get the white jersey team out and the dark jersey green helmet eagle set...it would be close to what each team wore in 1960.
