Kelly the Dog Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Bills made AFL history twice starting all rookie backfields; 1969 and 1968 with Dan Darraugh, Ben Gregory, and Mini Max Anderson. Nice call. And then we started a rookie Dennis Shaw at QB in 1970 as well. He won Rookie of the Year I think and then disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Met him as a kid at a high school. He looked Like a giant to me. Way to young to pass. So were you a Lava Bear as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helpmenow Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Got OJ and Ben Gregory autograph when they came over to the GM Parts Division on Walden Ave. The Juice was getting a blue 69 Corvette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vorpma Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Got OJ and Ben Gregory autograph when they came over to the GM Parts Division on Walden Ave. The Juice was getting a blue 69 Corvette. Ben Gregory was a awesome FB, big and fast, until a 1969 knee injury ended his career, Putting him with OJ in a backfield would have been interesting,. Then in 1971 we had, OJ, Jimmy Braxton (best blocking back in Bills history), JD Hill, Marlin Briscoe, Heaven Moses, and Bobby Chandler as wide receivers and still sucked at offense.

dib Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Saw him at a Cheektowaga Central HS football game back in the early 70s when he was playing for the Bills. Got his autograph back then. Hey Wacka, my swim coach at Central was a good friend of his. Earthquake came to one of our meets. So are you a Central Alumnus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, his wife taught with my father while he was a Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Raise your hand if you thought this was about the pro wrestler "Earthquake". He actually died about 8-10 years ago due to cancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
