Does anoybody remember the bid by a group led by Walter Payton, the Invisible Cloud Being rest his soul, for an NFL expansion franchise for St. Louis? The team was to be called the St. Louis Stallions.
But when the expansions went to Carolina and Jacksonville, St. Louis got the Rams to leave Southern California for the Mound City.
I was thinking for some while - what if the Stallions had been granted their franchise?
How would our guys, the E-A-G-L-E-S, done against them?
I believe, at least in my soul, that we would have beaten them, 9 times out of 10.
And half of those games would have been in Philly.
Four of those at Veterans Stadium!
Think about it, and talk about it.

And neither have I. I don't dare open my eyes. It's scary enough with the sounds she makes. I'd hate to see her farg face.
I take offense at that, MURP.
Not only that, but Walter Payton claimed to have a hand in the design of the logo.
Some years later, when the (AUUGH!) Denver Broncos unveiled the color scheme and logo that they use now, Sweetness claimed, "They stole it from us! They stole it from the Stallions!"
You wanna talk ugly logos? How about the Raiders, the Buccaneers, or even the Cowboy Crybabies? Now that's so damn ugly, you have to tie pork chops around the face mask to get the dog to wear them!

the broncos logo never looked remotely this bad or even close to this. sweetness was senile thinking that.
Why do I care if Walter Payton helped design it. Big Deal. It's ugly.
This guy is stupider than me.

So does that mean Payton stole the name Stallions from the Broncos? I often find myself up late at night pondering that. I heard Boise State and Western Michigan are equally as pissed off as is Kalaheo High School here in Hawaii.
