    4. What WR that lead the Eagles in receiving several years also played for the Browns? Tommy McDonald... the last player in the NFL to wear a facemask... Check

    Wasn't he the last player NOT to wear a facebar? Tough little dude but of course back then they were all little dudes compared to today. I remember in 5th grade I had a single bar football helmet around 1959ish.

    The 1964 NFL Championship BROWNS only had two 270 pound guys on the team both DEs (looked it up long ago).

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

      9. What was installed in the Eagle stadium in 1997 to deal with unruly fan behavior?

      I too thought it was cameras, maybe flamethrowers lol, but was it a local lockup?

          The Eagle is the national bird.

          Philadelphia... Birthplace of our Nation. The city where the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution were created. The iconic Liberty Bell. The Continental Congress in Philly in 1776 chose the Eagle at the recommendation of some Pa. lawyer.

          Is that correct?

              For 9, I seem to recall some sort of jail and/or judge for hearings.

              a courtroom is correct.

                    9. What was installed in the Eagle stadium in 1997 to deal with unruly fan behavior?

                    They put a satellite courtroom right in the stadium to dispense instant justice. It was there from 1997 to 2003

                    Bonus: How did the Philadelphia Eagles get their name?

                    While yes, the Eagle is the symbol of the nation, more specifically, at that time, 1933, during the Great Depression, the Eagle was the symbol of the National Recovery Department, a cornerstone organization of FDR's New Deal. That is where the Eagle name directly came from.

                      11. Should have at least gotten Reggie...

                      12. Always have to remember to consider a connection with the opponent's team... yet I seldom do.

                      More good stuff as usual, Gip...
