That was awesome. Would've been nice to see a full half-hour segment though.

I was 10 in 1969, his MVP year.

Favorite Ram.

I wrote to the Rams and they sent me a signed photo from Gabe that has been lost for many years...
Funny...I purchased a signed photo from the Rams quite a few years ago, written to "My friend, Ramlock
~Your friend, Roman Gabriel:yess:

Man, I couldn't recognize Gabriel as he looks now....So different to me than my memory. I remember wandering through a neighbors house and seeing a magazine (Sports Illustrated?) with Roman on the cover and it must have been that time. I searched and found this cover, and I believe it's the one:

But to be honest, I remember him more from this movie....

verklempt. ver·klempt. adjective. The definition of verklempt is a Yiddish word that describes a person who is too emotional to speak. An example of verklempt is a bride unable to give a speech at her wedding reception because she's overcome by love and joy.

Watch the first game as they did two...Sir Roman at his best this is my first recollection of a NFL football game...I was four, but a huge party at my grandparents house and my grandfather, father, uncle's & cousins all yelling to get and stop Gabriel and the Giants could not, it was that day at such a young age I knew the horns were for me.

Nice Vids Prime! I especially the 1969 Philly Rams game! Here's a stat for you, even though they didn't keep sack Official records, The announcer states, coming into the game, the Rams lead the league with ".. 37 Sacks in the 1st 8 games! WOW!!
There are some great stats in this game, But I won't spoil things you'll hear watching this game of "Unbeaten's"! Go Gabe Go!

It's hard to believe Roman is 75 years Old now, But then again I'm closing in on 73! Oh! I just noticed, you about to join the "70's" Club, or have you already Train!?!:LOL::D
