  • Greta Video!!! Just wondering the song you

    have playing in the background "The Mighty

    Boot Of Dempsey" by Bobby Bridger. What

    is the record it's on? Been trying to find it but

    no luck. Thanks for posting this.

  • The TV station included the music with the video. I had that song on 45 at one time but didn't find it when I moved 10 years ago. The best place to start looking is on eBay and then move on to various Saints related blogs and websites.

  • @cokacody i dont belive you cody

  • If u pause it at 1:47 it looks like he missed it

  • @Joshuaguss haha

  • @Joshuaguss i know dempsey was great back then. his accuracy was high 77 percent. it says 61 on nfl.com but thats wrong. its 77 % and i wish tom would go to the hall of fame

  • @machiiniiima Yeah I see, I wonder what penalties they have now that they didn't have back then. I already know they didn't have "Unsportsmanlike Conduct, Neutral Zone in Fraction, illegal Block in the Back, Penalty for hitting the QB on the head, stepping on your teammate's back to try to block a FG and Delay of game for slaming the ball."

  • @Joshuaguss its because they were actually allowed to play football back them

  • @BlackCowboyBrett1953 whether that is true or not ...who knows? looked like to me they were tring

  • @BlackCowboyBrett1953 my father told me that when he was traded the following year to the lions...they players on the team told him ''they didnt even really try to block the kick'' ...''they thought he had no chance of making it.''..thought that was funny ..

  • they would remain there until '74,when they were moved to the end line,10 yards back of the goal),I laughed out load9the longest NFL FG until then had been 56 yards,by another handicapped player,Bert Rechicar).Then Dempsey advances,kicks this ball,which flies like a bird and nestles JUST OVER the goalposts!!!)
