R.I.P. Claude Humphrey

Former Falcon Claude Humphrey passed away yesterday at the age of 77.

Humphrey was the third overall pick out of Tennessee State.  
He hold the Falcons all-time sack record, and added to his total with the Eagles.
Claude was the first Falcon inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Saturday morning Will and Thomas biked down to the World Congress Center to attend the SEC Fanfest. They found themselves on ESPN College Gameday, behind David Pollack's interview with Todd Gurley.


As a kid I watched Billy Kilmer quarterback the Saints and Redskins. Kilmer played basketball at UCLA for legendary head coach John Wooden. He finished in the top five in passing and rushing for the Bruins.

Kilmer played halfback for the 49ers, in the same backfield with YA Tittle and John Brodie. It was Kilmer's fumble that Jim Marshall famously returned the wrong way. Kilmer missed time with the 49ers after falling asleep at the wheel and driving her car into the San Francisco Bay. Later Kilmer's time with the Saints came to an end when he was traded to Washington, so New Orleans could draft Archie Manning.  
I might be inventing in a little Atlanta Legends gear. 
David Letterman will be a guest on with Peyton and Eli tomorrow night.
Perhaps they'll throw footballs at meatballs atop the Christmas tree.
I suppose private companies shouldn't be forced
to sell things they're opposed to, right?
