John Madden surrenders.
And there we are, another French Connection.

Just to be perfectly clear that you're not implying that John Madden is of French heritage...

Good thing for the Steelers that Bradshaw used to spray his passes all over the place. Otherwise, Frenchy would have caught that pass. A, I believe he was getting hit by a Raider as the ball arrived. B. Spray or no spray ... Hall of Fame, baby! Stroh (and probably twoiron, Jules, and the Twins): that's John "Frenchy" Fuqua, former Steelers running back and the guy that the football allegedly caromed off and into the hands of Franco Harris for the Immaculate Reception.

Stroh (and probably twoiron, Jules, and the Twins): that's John "Frenchy" Fuqua, former Steelers running back and the guy that the football allegedly caromed off and into the hands of Franco Harris for the Immaculate Reception. Interesting. I had always been aware of the play, but never had any idea of the controversy, and/or question on the ruling. BTW Nice job everyone! Way to jack this motha proper! Damn! From Japanese Mayonnaise martinis to French controlled lone gunman playoff wins. It has to be our finest hour.

Coincidence? Francisco Franco was Spanish, and Franco Harris was Italian. However, in the latter part of his career, Harris used to run out of bounds instead of taking a hit. He was roundly criticized by Hall of Famer Jim Brown, whose rushing record Harris eclipsed, for pulling the football equivalent of the French military surrender move.

That's a big club right there. T-shirts, coffee mugs, the whole shebang.

Thirteen seasons is pretty damn long career for a starting NFL running back. Perhaps you would like some Brie? (back on-topic!)

I actually used to be a huge Steeler fan myself, so I figure I'm allowed to rip on the same Pittsburgh players I used to root for. You know. It's kind of like how it's OK for African-American to use the "N-word" or people named Rene can call each other "tapette".
