what was that? is that all there is? who is this? this is it.

That’s a 1978 Garo Yepremian card on the wall at HQ. 

 

Where were you in 1972? I was 3 years old somewhere in the Inland Empire and I was not watching Super Bowl VII, which capped off Miami’s perfect season of 72. But six years later when I was paying attention to the NFL and collecting football cards I knew of Garo Yepremian because he kicked around the NFL until 1981. That play was played ad nauseum.  NFL Films will not let me embed the video here but they will let you watch it on youtube. Notice how he kicks lefty but tries to pass with his right. 

Garo goes for glory.  Every place kicker dreams of rolling out and throwing a touchdown pass.
