Sammy Baugh - RIP

Hmm...the post is still there. Isn't there a rule about that now?

 

Oh, stop it.

 

Ice cream?

And no, I won't.

 

No ice cream. She was 53 and I was 33. Apparently, there's something in the water in Rotan that keeps 'em spry long past the formative years.

I like this TCU-era pic:

 

That's one ugly woman.


Oh, Baugh. Never mind.

 

The gals are a might bandy-legged and broad-shouldered down that-a-way.

 

you know I got your back, gola, but we're just opposite sides on this one, my friend. dude's a legend, especially in Texas. but since I like you, I will give you a pass here. just this once. just don't let this happen again.

 

That is awesome.

R.I.P., Slingin' Sammy.

 

really? you have nothing to say about nothing -- and i mean absolutely nothing about sports history in the past -- and you come out on this?

maybe you should be just a bit more amazed by something, anything resembling sports history, and it would be more believable.

the post quoted above is laughable at best.

 

Growing up in the '70s I had no clue who Slingin' Sammy was, that was the time of Chuck Foreman and Bob Griese, but my best buddy in 5th grade down the street was a Baugh, Sammy's great nephew, and one day my bud came back from Texas with a signed ball from Slingin' Sammy for me. I lost that ball but a great memory. Thanks Mr. Baugh.
