Harold Carmichael just threw a touchdown pass to Mike Quick in this Eagles/Colts game that I'm watching. I feel like I've watched an inordinate number of TD passes from receivers and runners in 1983.
The name 'Harold Carmichael' used to be a weird form of trolling on Pittsburgh sports-talk radio. People would call in to a show and somehow work his name into the conversation. He retired in 1984, yet I heard his name as recently as a year or two ago. Was this a thing anywhere else, or just a weird Pittsburgh tradition?
Harold Carmichael was awesome!
If memory serves, for a while he held the record for consecutive games with a reception.
One of only three Eagles jerseys I own. Still my favorite jersey, but they never seem to win when I wear it on gameday.

And the others are...Brian Westbrook and Brian Dawkins?

Sorry to hold you guys in suspense.
Brian Dawkins and Brent Celek. Three most in games played (save for a kicker).

What I’ll say about Tyson is that when he started fighting on HBO all the time, my dad and I would futz around with the cable box to try to get a passable picture so we could watch. It was like that.
Speaking of Tyson in passable video, I hereby promise that if any of us ever end up on a plane drunk and Mike Tyson is on the plane as well, I will not film you while you harass said Tyson.

Madison Cawthorn would’ve bought it.

And the "rehearsal" video! This had to be incredibly cheesy even for the time. OTOH, variety shows were huge and equally cheesy, so maybe not.
the most random bump but since i never saw this the first time around ... i *was* on a plane with Mike Tyson a few years ago while slightly inebriated. I gave him a(n i'm sure obvious) double-take, locked eyes, and i kept moving.
i miss this thread
