      @@darrylturner4566 made him wait 50 years for what his jersey number never got worn again by a Steeler after him may not have been officially retired but it wasn’t used so idk why your so upset Your talking bad about an organization we just lost a person like come on dude your better then that your talking about a contract and he left because his agent wanted him to get a 2nd year guaranteed and he didn’t get that with Seattle either so clearly it doesn’t matter in the long hall now does it

    I remember when franco was nearing jim browns record and brown kept saying franco prolonged his career by stepping out of bounds all the time and proceeded to challenge him to a 40 yard dash race. when franco was asked is he was going to race brown franco replied we already did I stepped out of bound at the 39 just a really good guy rip franco I will always treasure the autograph you gave me.

    I will never forget the immaculate reception. My husband, brother in law & my brother in laws new baby, who I was holding were together watching the game. My poor BIL couldn't decide what to look at....the TV screen or me holding his new baby screaming & jumping up & down cheering Franco on. I knew I wasn't going to drop her, but he wasn't quite sure. LOL....now you all know how old she is.
