BleedTheClock Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Who are some of your all-time favorite obscure players from older eras of the NFL? Guys you always liked or for whatever reason, evoke a response from you when you hear their names pop up. Mine: Donovan Darius Gerald Sensabaugh Paul Spicer James Thrash James Gardner Larry Brackins Bobby McCray Chaun Thompson Bethel Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Leonard Weaver, a do it all Fullback, and the last fullback the Eagles ever had that really mattered. Sean Considine, for the human cape memes. Tony Hunt, because he played my favorite position at my alma matter and was drafted by my Eagles, even if he was a bust. Hank Baskett, go get em playboy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude was right up there with Revis for a couple seasons. The fall off from when he was a Raider to an Eagle was absolutely astonishing though.

Kearse made his way into a Wu Tang verse, yall. That's better than Hall of Fame status. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzane Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Gosh, this thread fairly screams for Brutal; I am not the High Priest (really, who is?) of Ol'-Time Players and 100-Yard-Dash Times that he is, but I shall try to assist in his absence: CHARLES (BUCKETS) GOLDENBERGCollege: WisconsinPro Career: 1933-45 Green Bay Packers A native of Milwaukee, “Buckets” Goldenberg picked the Green Bay Packers over the Chicago Cardinals and New York Giants when he turned pro in 1933. For the next 13 seasons, Goldenberg was a mainstay of Curly Lambeau’s dominant teams. In all, Goldenberg earned All-Pro recognition five times during his career. -Famous for inspiring the character of Charlie Bucket in the children's novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which was later dumbed down to being called "Willy Wonka" for the movie version. NORMAN "PUDDING PANTS" MANGOULIAN College: Tunafish College for Women Pro Career: 1936-37 Terre Haute Angry Turtles Fat, fun-loving 2-way guard whose legendary eating habits did not prevent him for waddling a 14.76 hundred yard dash! Once ate a live bulldog just before a game. Edited March 28, 2019 by bzane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
