R.I.P George Blanda

Post by mpbrockman »

A legendary figure in the annals of the NFL.

And the basis for my introduction to Chris Allen; who, during a scene, gave that name as his reason for searching the center of the Earth in what was one of my first (if not my first) Maestro back in '07. I think I was one of maybe three people in the room laughing my a** off at this relatively obscure NFL reference.

He was a quarterback. He was a kicker. He was a Raider.

I will try and use his name wisely in improv from these days forward.

Amen.
