A great memory
For those wondering, here's the sack by #65 #LawrencePillers in the '81 NFC Championship Game vs Dallas. "The Catch" put them over the top, but Pillers sealed the game. Class act, @PatrickWillis52!
📺This scene from The Bob Newhart Show is pure classic sitcom absurdity. Bob’s patient is a ventriloquist who believes his dummy wants to leave the act and go solo. The dummy starts talking back during the therapy session, and Newhart just plays it completely straight. That deadpan reaction to escalating nonsense is what he did better than almost anyone. It’s a great example of how the show could take a ridiculous premise and make it work through understatement. ❓I used to watch this show when I was about 11 years old. It was so funny. Did you watch The Newhart Show? #BobNewhart #TheBobNewhartShow #ClassicTV #70sTV #Sitcom #Comedy

As an alum, I was disappointed with the loss. But I can’t wait until next year. The men left everything on the court. I was, and still am, very proud of them and you.

Just wondering if a neighborhood girl will dress as Aunt Esther.
The kids dressed up as Sanford and Son is still the greatest costume I have ever seen.

No player in LA Dodger history meant more to a community than Fernando Valenzuela. Outside of Sandy Koufax, Fernandomania was so legit that you never wanted to miss him pitch. If you have a sombrero, toss it in the sky.

One of best Taxi moments is when Jim's (Christopher Lloyd) father died and asks his dad if he could hear just once that he loved him. The masterclass is done when Jim finally realizes, without saying a word, that his dad loved him more than he could know. Happy Birthday Chris!

That one jump, changed sports forever.
Let's recall Bob Beamon as he charges down the runway first time out with intent and takes off in sensational fashion to land way out where no man has dreamt of before at a staggering WR of 8.90 (2.0) to clinch Olympic gold sight unseen in the LJ in Mexico (A) 56 years ago today

To the @Cal @CalFootball team: the loss hurt my heart, but my real heartache is for all of you, as I know this loss hurt your hearts - to the @NCAA: if officials do not call targeting such as we saw, you have no standing to assert that you care about athlete health and safety.
