As promised, Jeff, the one and only Richard Lumber...

View attachment 98418

Signed no less, in person probably in 1966.
Seeing as you are a long time Dolphins fan and the President, Treasurer and Enforcer of the Richard Lumber Fan Club, I figured you'd like this short documentary on the 1966 Dolphins. THe best part is when Richard Lumber purposely threw an interception to Fred "The Hammer" Williamson so the Fins could get revenge on him for breaking Howard Twilly's jaw.

To get to the play in question.........aka the greatest play in AFL history.....go to ^;5 on the vidoe. I LMAO every time I watch it.

 
Oh Shoot! You cn watch it on Youtube. It;ll be worth your time rlschles if you have not seen this play,
What a great video.

I had season tickets - the club had a thing called the Huddle Club for kids - it was something like 10 games for 10 bucks, seats in the endzone - me and all of my friends went, chaperoned by one of the dads. Howard Twilley was our star receiver. John Stofa was the qb interviewed, #15. Then he lost his job the next year to Bob Griese, drafted number 2 out of Purdue. Can you guess who went number 1 that year?

Was it O.J.? Or was he the next year? I think the #1 pick in 67 was Bubba Smith from my alma mater.

I thought you'd like that video. Hard to believe Miami was considered an outpost back then instead of a destination like today thanks to the marvels of air conditioning. I was having trouble IDing some of those guys. Twilly was easy to pcik out beause of that snaggle tooth. And Wahoo McDaniel wa easy for obvious reasons. I'm not sure who the young guy with the good hair was. I think it was Norm Evans when looking at some of his mid 70s cards,

That Richard Lumber/Fred Williamson play is just the best. I can't help laughing every time I see it and I'v watched that A LOT!! LMAO!!

I think the brown haired guy was Billy Neighbors, a solid O-Line guy for several years. Norm Evans was there. Joe Auer. And John Stofa.

#1 was Bubba.

Griese was actually #4, not #2. The guy picked just before Griese was Steve Spurrier, who beat Griese out for the Heisman, but never amounted to much of an NFL QB.

Boy, Neighbors and Evans are really similar looking after looking at their cards. Stofa was the guy with the thin face I believe. THe only card ever made of him was a 69 Topps with him in a Dolphins uniform with helmet on a Bengals card. You could see he had a thin face even through the facemask.

One more hilarious video showing a future Dolphin player. As you know Larry Seiple probably has the most famous fake punt in NFL history against the Steelers in the playoffs. . That famous play pales in comparison with the one he pulled off in college. This video always makes me laugh when watching the "Defensive" players. And this was in the SEC too!!

Hopefully this video is not "age inappropriate" or owned by the NFL like some of my recent attempts to post them here.


Bad enough the Dolphins had 3 1,000 yard rushers in a season but you also had a punter that could break of 70 yard runs as well!!
 
Kinda stinks about the above card... it's not numbered but it's a 3-color patch. The numbered versions are the ones that usually have the nice swatches in them, and the non-numbered usually have a plain jsy swatch. So the value is based on it not being numbered even though it has a sweet swatch... bummer.
