    Those Pro Line cards all look like ads for Nair...."Who wears short shorts?, We wear short shorts, If you dare wear short shorts, Nair for short shorts". At least with the top card the Pro Line logo is strategically placed! Never liked those cards, never will!

    And all this time I thought "bears" caught fish with their paws.

    For a man of his size, he is surprisingly limber.

    I'll admit not the most flattering photo but nice NFL career (11 yrs) and broke the record for longest FG back in 1970 (has since been tied). Back in the day goal posts were at the front of the end zone. The ball was kicked from the Saints own 37 yd line! And he was a straight-on kicker (not soccer style), born with half a right foot (his kicking foot) and no fingers on his right hand. If you have the chance watch the You Tube video. A truly remarkable feat/foot! It also looks like one of the refs had to contain himself when he signaled that the kick was good.

    Here's the video:



    Here's his foot as well:



    Dempsey was born without toes on his right foot and no fingers on his right hand. He wore a modified shoe with a flattened and enlarged toe surface. This generated controversy about whether such a shoe gave a player an unfair advantage. When reporters would ask him if he thought it was unfair, he said "Unfair eh? How 'bout you try kickin' a 63 yard field goal to win it with 2 seconds left an' yer wearin' a square shoe, oh, yeah and no toes either".[3] Additionally, when an analysis of his kick was carried out by ESPN Sport Science, it was found that his modified shoe offered him no advantage - the smaller contact area could in fact have increased the margin of error.[4] In 1977, the NFL added a rule, informally known as the "Tom Dempsey Rule," that "any shoe that is worn by a player with an artificial limb on his kicking leg must have a kicking surface that conforms to that of a normal kicking shoe."

    Good thing he wasn't a Tight End or Wide Receiver. That would have been way over the top! Really would have made him the butt of a lot of jokes.
