That guy was a fierce competitor He is the biggest reason the Broncos had that vaunted Orange Crush defense. They went from cellar dwellers to Super Bowl contenders under his leadership.

He was such an intense competitor that he said he refused to shake hands with opponents after the game. I much prefer that attitude versus the one know where the players have bromances with each other.

I really like him and Chris Berman doing NFL Primetime for all those years. Berman because I understood most of his crazy references and Jackson because of his analysis and humor.

I love that oddball stuff and that card in particular since it corresponds with his RCs.

Doin' a bit of cheating putting more than 1 card up... gotta see them all to appreciate them, though. I call these Shark Business Cards

NICE card!! I'm extremely close on completing that set and that card really caught my eye. Checked my want list and did not need it otherwise we'd be doing some talking.

Hi -

Those vintage 70s Hockey cards are nice! I think I have an extra or two if you needed one!

Thanks ! I'll send you that want list later today if we don't lose power. We might be getting 4" of rain this afternoon and evening.

I'm not only Old School but also just plain old and I cannot figure out what youtr new collecting project is.

Love the Concrete Charlie card with the single bar face mask! With facial protection like that, you can see why those guys were so good looking! LOL At least that is better than what my dad had when he played for Syracuse in the late 40s which was no facemask at all..........and he had the nose to prove it. One of my brothers said from the side he looked like the Indian on the old Buffalo nickel. LMAO!!!

I'm gunna start collecting cards of NFL players that served in the military. I have a short list of guys right now but it's already been interesting researching what they did. They're all heroes in my book, but a few are flat out bad a** mofos!! Like Chuck, here, was in a bomber in WWII flying missions over Germany.

You're gonna need Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard - Mr Outside and Mr Inside. Heisman '46 and '45. And I have no doubt you're already overloaded with Staubachs.
