Soon as I got home I had to try out my Thrift Store Find of the Year. It's good!

My eBay find of the year so far: a 1984 USFL program, with a nice long article about my favorite part of football... the special teams. Also an article about a Stallions offensive lineman, and lots of great photos. @VUSFL2018 @HelmetAddict @uflstall

Dan, Dave & I are back! Well, we never went away, but the audio was so bad the past month I didn't feel like sharing. This week we're listenable, as we discuss college basketball tournaments, NBA expansion & the World Baseball Classic. open.spreaker.com/A4NZ/q5304qjt

@WadeHeidt *properly sized jersey numbers

No nameplates. No room for nameplates! BC Lions had massive jersey numbers. There are pro football teams that wear something different on their helmets than their primary logo. The paw logo as a secondary logo but on the primary helmet wouldn't be a bad idea right now.

@FB_Helmet_Guy Jim Turner wore high tops with the Broncos.

Check out Jack Lambert's high tops. They remind me of boxing shoes.

I knew. And before that, I knew. x.com/Tonysmarkettip…

@HelmetAddict Always loved the Fire helmet. Sharks and Hawaiian s are good too.

I wasn't even alive when this league existed, but I have been obsessed with it for decades. World Football League 1974-1975 What is your favorite WFL helmet?

Why am I getting posts in my "Following" thread that don't say "Ad" in the corner, from sites I don't follow? Those sites get muted or blocked right away. Need to fix this, @x

@wvilk Not even served on a bed of croutons, then topped with sauteed mushrooms, garlic and diced tomatoes? I was finishing off some leftovers and just threw them all together.

Corn (No Beef) and Cabbage. Happy St Patrick's Day!

@HelmetAddict I'm partial to the top one. They're all better than what we have now, though.

From their inception through much of the 70s, the Dolphins helmet logo and stripes were inconsistent and changed from year to year. Changes in size, color and design, sometimes players had two different logos in the same game. Which look is the definitive and best Dolphins helmet? Note: Graphic not meant to be a comprehensive visual of all the helmets of these eras.

At last…

@wkyc 280 days til the start of next Winter! ❄️☃️❄️

It's almost here! 🌷We’re counting down to the start of spring, the Cleveland Guardians home opener and opening day at Cedar Point

@HelmetAddict No one's mentioned Brian's Song yet?

What's the best football movie ever?

@brandongutie Stacey's Mom is a very good song. Postmodern Jukebox made it a great song. youtu.be/T2kOj-GFN8k?si…

Funnily enough I was thinking about how Fountains of Wayne made a perfect throwback pop song only to turn around a few years later and make a perfect contemporary pop song with Stacey's Mom. Absolutely insane.

Congrats, @SWCfootballNow on your first round victory x.com/John_Sabol/sta…

@HelmetAddict Almost said they should have been called New Jersey, but guarding New York from outside the city limits does make sense...

Helmet of the day: The New York Guardians of the short-lived 2020 return of the XFL.

@ryfun Does your puppet blindness include action figures? youtu.be/pmk94-SiCGs?si…

Winter isn't over yet (thankfully!), and hoodie season in the Rust Belt sometimes lasts until May. So now is a good time to make some more football hoodies. I went early 70s and USFL 80s with these.

@TrentMWeather Hurray!

Winter is BACK!
