LOL Cowpolk, I knew we had something in common other than just being old!

Dint rasslin repeats come on either before or after the game With fritz ironclawing the hek out of people

Very good. It was channel 11 and as I recall, wrestling came on first. I remember Fritz Von Eric, Haystack Calhoun, Jose Lotherio, and there was this black guy that was very atheletic.....and smaller than the rest. He was my fave wrestler after that guy they called Ivan (he was huge)......can't remember their names! Ivan Putski, I think.

Those names aren't ringing any bells. I remember the face of the analyst, but not his name. "The Brute" is vague, but was he the villian that Von Eric was always fighting for the championship?

They are my favorite college team any other Irish fans out there in The Cowboy nation?

Other then Texas. There was no other college to see. Well got to admit Grambling was also. I like the storries of the four horseman, and the names of the coaches. Real hot stuff. almost angelic.

   Well my sister wound up marring in Notre Dame Chappel to a graduate. She graduated from Indiana State near by. Since then, her daughter has graduated and also married at the same chappel.

   Her son decided to leave school and pursue a actors path.

   but yea count me in as one of the Fans for the Fighting Irish.

Irish fan here, but I also follow Texas (I live in Texas) and my alma mater UTEP Miners.
