OT Y.A. Tittle passed away at 90.

JoMo's old teammate..

Y.A. lost his hair early on and was nicknamed the "bald eagle". Great memories watching him play.

Took the worst beatings I ever saw a quarterback take his final year or two. Just awful.

He was hell running the Crazy Quilt

The Giants really deteriorated under Allie Sherman's coaching and no one suffered more that Y.A.

I'll be 67 in December. I was in my early to mid-teens when he was going through the final stretch of his career, along with Unitas and Starr.

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

I'll be 73 in January.

Has anyone ever told you that you look just like Jadaveon Clowney?

 

[world famous 3rd base hecklers]

I remembered YA Tittle telling me that he was real excited when he heard South Carolina hired Joe Morrison back in 1983...

I heard that for a lot of YA's career one of his receivers had bad vision, so YA had to throw it wobbly so the receiver could see it better.

Well, that could have been a reference to Raymond Berry, who played for the Colts. He's in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Great hands, not fast, and not possessed of great vision, either. But he and Unitas hooked up on some incredible plays.

Yeah, I get that all the time!

 

[pisgah]

I was a Colt fan and hated the Giants, but YA was a great qb in his elderly years. I don't think he did anything great in the earlier part of his career.
