Your heart-brain line is reminiscent of a line by Sophia Petrillo in The Golden Girls. "Your heart's in the right place, but I don't know where the hell your brain is!"
"Initial reports on Dan Darragh is a deep bone bruise and he will be out for the rest of the game. Back to you, Curt." Then he goes home and explain to her what happened and she can see he's going to be alright. That's a much better scenario than her seeing that report on TV and left worrying. It's not that he was trying to keep it from his wife from ever finding out. He's just trying to keep her from finding out at that time and in that way. You've obviously never had a pregnant wife.
Not the first time you did a video with this date (11/9/69). This was the same day as the 31-31 tie between the Bengals and Oilers which you talked about in another video..
I wonder where that preseason game against the Lions was played since it looked like it was played on AstroTurf and neither War Memorial Stadium in Buffalo nor Tiger Stadium in Detroit ever had AstroTurf.
Oddly enough, not the first time you’ve referenced the phrase about a blind squirrel finding a nut, as you did a video several months back about the Diamondbacks’ Kelly Stinnett using the phrase in regards to hitting a home run off Kerry Wood, and USA Today misconstrued that as *Wood* saying that about Stinnett.
With all due respect Billy Joe Hobert was the worst QB in Bills history. At least Darragh actually played multiple games and even won one. Go check out the story of BJ Hobert. The guy never even opened the playbook once.
Darragh was pretty bad, but was he worse than Gary Marangi? Marangi was a third round pick so I imagine he was expected to do something besides post an 0-7 lifetime record and a lifetime passer rating of 36.1.
Marangi was the only other Bills QB I thought of as well! Darragh's career passer rating was SIX POINTS LOWER and Marangi threw THREE TIMES as many TDs in four fewer games!
I could sort of see his reasoning like this: The baby is DUE in three days, but sometimes they come early. If it comes in this narrow interval, it's better if she's not worried.
Darragh's wife was gonna know something happened to him due to either wearing a sling or having the arm attached to said shoulder dangling. Darragh clearly didn't think this through, which might be why he was such a scrub on the field. I couldn't stop laughing when I was watching most of this!
The majority of Buffalo's games were started by backup quarterback Dan Darragh, after injuries claimed the seasons of long-time starter Jack Kemp and new addition Tom Flores. Even Darragh and new addition Kay Stephenson were injured. Ultimately, running back Ed Rutkowski, who hadn't played the quarterback position since college six years prior, ended up starting at quarterback for the Bills.
Ed Rutkowski started 3 games in '68 and lost all 3. He's listed as QB-HB-SE-WR and somehow received 2 votes for AFL Player of the Year--probably from his wife and Dan Darragh's wife--which was twice as many as Don Maynard got. And then he immediately retired on the top of his game.
But the real question is...was Dan Darragh worse than the legendarily awful Kim McQuilken? (Checks PFR.) Holy guacamole, he actually might have been!!!

PS looks like that Shea turf was still a mess three weeks after the World Series won by the Mets
Until this video, I've never heard of this guy.
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made a video about the Bengals-Oilers game that same week.
Mcdavid was fire in that game
At 14:08, you can get around the problem by wearing Timberlands.

1966-1971, the Oilers wore silver helmets with the light blue derricks.

Which is worse than if he did nothing but spike the ball into the ground on every single play.

@DolFan316. I concede your point. Also, Darragh had more opportunities to screw up.
Ironically Dan Darragh’s college head coach in the mid 60’s would eventually lead the bills to 4 straight superbowls
I'm surprised that Darragh was smart enough to understand the playbook. Or maybe he wasn't, and that's why he was so bad.
I could sort of see his reasoning like this: The baby is DUE in three days, but sometimes they come early. If it comes in this narrow interval, it's better if she's not worried.
I know. It's not that he's keeping her from ever finding out. He's keeping her from finding out at that particular time in that manner.
I'm sorry, Nathan peterman's worst
