00:23If you love the Philadelphia Eagles, let me
00:27get a hell yeah!
00:30Get a hell yeah!
00:45And not only do we have the best fans in the world, we now have the best team in the
00:54world. Thank you guys.
00:58After winning their first ever Super Bowl, we thought it was
01:03finally time to give the Philadelphia Eagles
01:09their own top 10.
01:11This is your show. How you go, it goes.
01:12All the way.
01:19As many former Eagle players know, pleasing the hard no
01:25Eagles Philly fans will be no easy task.
01:28The Eagles franchise
01:31is like no other franchise
01:34You have to be from Philadelphia to understand it.
01:43Philadelphia is a blue-collar town and...
01:53You gotta be a blue-collar player.
02:09And who better to kick us off than long-time voice of the Eagles, Merrill Reese.
02:15We're looking at the top 10 Eagles...
02:21...of all time.
02:23A list that will cause a lot of debate.
02:29Some that you will say are automatic, some that may really open your eyes.
02:36The number 10 greatest Eagles.
02:38You beat...
02:40Eagles.
02:41Randall Cunningham.
02:43Who would you rank as your top Eagle of all time?
02:46Randall Cunningham, no doubt.
02:48...Statering Stadium in Philadelphia.
02:50It is rocking tonight.
02:52The Giants are in town, they're down, going to go.
02:58That's the round goal!
02:59Randall.
02:59administration.
03:00He's losing help.
03:06Turn out of Deleone!
03:08Oh dear.
03:09And you saw right there!
03:10Ah!
03:11Look at that.
03:17I've been watching football since 50 years, I've never seen anyone in the ****.
03:21Randall Cunningham.
03:22That!..
03:23It's the big-time play.
03:32he was a hard guy to game plan against because you couldn't replicate him you didn't really
03:38see anybody like him not only is he fast but he was hard to tackle and we are looking at
03:44rambling ramble once again one of the things that was his calling card every time he got
03:49near the end zone he was going up cunningham weeping
03:57i always say why do you think you can fly i said i'm the eagle
04:04so his touchdowns always look absolutely awesome because he's flying to the air as he gets hit
04:15randall cunningham's 1990 season the likes had never been seen before
04:19in the nfl and that's why you have to put him in the top 10
04:25cunningham threw for almost 3 500 yards and rushed for over 900 yards combining for 35 touchdowns
04:32one play from that season best summed up his amazing abilities
04:38well you think about the buffalo escape the play that i think about the most was the pass
04:42against the buffalo bills where he scrambled in the end zone and he hurled one downfield
04:48he tooks on the three men he's looking he's rolling he's hitting it deep downfield
05:00there is nobody does it better than number 12
05:04not only does he escape it he launches a ball 60 yards down the field fred barnett catches it
05:09and the rest is history i don't know how he did it even now i can't believe that he pulled
05:14that off
05:16the ultimate weapon are you kidding me not one of the best si covers of all time the best si
05:21cover
05:21of all time cunningham comes in at number 10 because the ultimate weapon
05:27playoffs so they created a name for raymond six interceptions he threw 125 passes in a row
05:37in the playoffs without a single touchdown to start his postseason career
05:44cut the ultimate weapon he was a weapon on a playoff game a playoff game was all cunningham
05:50won in the five games he started for the eagles in the postseason the ultimate weapon somewhere
05:56along the line he probably won a championship and and and that's the one thing he didn't do
06:02he certainly demands to
06:06i would not have put him on this top 10 list uh i feel like this is a little low
06:12probably wouldn't
06:12have put him in 10 probably with him outside my 10 number 10 cunningham is number 10 is that cunningham
06:19the punter because cunningham the quarterback is clearly better than number 10 10's about right
06:28the city of brotherly love has seen its fair share of history
06:48well obviously harold carmichael is underrated every philadelphia fan knows that
06:55he's looking for carmichael
07:01he takes it at the five he's in for a touchdown
07:08i think the greatest receiver in the history of a philadelphia eagle
07:16is harold carmichael harold carmichael dominated absolutely dominated the game
07:23in his era carmichael also
07:27dominates the eagles record books despite playing his last
07:33game in 1983 he still holds the franchise records for catches receiving yards and receiving
07:43touchdowns and in 1980 he set the nfl record for consecutive
07:53games with a catch
07:54a hundred and twenty seven games with the ca- games with
07:58the catch that's hard that was not a hundred and twenty seven consecutive that's
08:08in fourteen game seasons that's like he went nearly nine seasons doing that
08:15era in which receivers have
08:18that they get today that's a remarkable accomplishment
08:23who would you rather throw to who's rather throw to a guy that's a running back coming out of the
08:27backfield who's rather throw to a six one guy or how about the six eight monster running down the
08:31field i'll throw to that guy i grew up in philly watching the eagles and harold carmichael
08:38was the biggest football player you'd ever seen in your life i'm standing here talking to perhaps the tallest
08:45football league harold carmichael do you know how tall he was he was six eight six eight
08:51harold carmichael six eight
08:56imagine lining up and looking up to harold carmichael and he was unguardable in the end zone
09:03he was the ultimate end zone weapon
09:05made my job easy
09:06i mean i knew where harold was gonna be
09:09the minute we get inside the five yard line no matter what we had called we had
09:15even great defense couldn't stop harold carmichael
09:21oh my god and the thing about harold carmichael and i'm surprised the eagles probably wouldn't
09:26let him on the list because who did he have his last reception with
09:29dallas cowboys he played two games he had one catch for seven yards you know how much he'd like
09:36to get rid of that one catch that's the blemish on his record
09:41the fact that harold's numbers still you know stand up as number one
09:47think of the plethora of wide receivers that have gone through this town harold's the number one
09:52that says a lot about what he did
09:56harold carmichael is a great great receiver and i don't think really gets his just due
10:04in the ranks of the nfl not just the eagles he was a great eagle but i think he should
10:08be in the hall of fame
10:10the number eight greatest eagle jerome brown
10:18the um the buddy ryan fan reggie white was the best player
10:23and set joiner was the smartest player
10:27but jerome he was the fire in the middle of that defense
10:34on days when he really had it going he could take a game over
10:40he was the heart and he was the heart and soul
10:44tremendous defensive play by jerome brown
10:47that defense was one of the best ever
10:51and he was in the middle of everything
10:57jerome brown was strong i mean country strong people could not run where jerome brown was
11:07and he was unbelievable at pushing the pocket he was a dominant dominant player
11:13jerome just beat the center and got straight through the field
11:16the quickness that he had for his body type and his size was just off the charts
11:23big jerome brown he's alone
11:25we kind of generally draft and cast and play
11:30here's our run defender here's our pass rusher
11:32it wasn't easy to find a guy that could be both in one package and jerome was
11:39our number eight eagles immense talent was outshined only by his oversized personality
11:46jerome brown constantly moving and constantly talking
11:50jerome brown's personality first of all was larger than life
11:54he was just kind of a fun guy who loved to play football and then deared himself to the city
12:01of philadelphia
12:02jerome brown was like a talk radio caller to wip decided to put on a philadelphia eagles uniform and then
12:09also be good
12:10he was he was very fun loving very charismatic you come out backyard and try to start something you always
12:18get your butt kicked
12:20but when you get on the field i think everybody on the opposing team is scared to death
12:27brown played just five seasons in kelly green due to a fatal car accident in 1992
12:34his short tenure with the team has led to the debate about his inclusion on this list
12:40does he deserve to make the list
12:42that's an interesting question
12:44i think jerome brown was a phenomenal player
12:47for five years hard to earn that top 10 ranking
12:50when you're talking about
12:52i think dominance for a short period
12:55should be appreciated
12:57he should be highlighted for that
12:59jerome brown should absolutely be on this list
13:01i don't think that there was anybody who was more perfect
13:03for philadelphia than jerome brown
13:07it's a question now that you ask me i'm going to be thinking about this for days
13:12now you gave me something to think about
13:18who came in at number seven
13:21the number seven
13:23the greatest eagle
13:24tommy mcdonald
13:28i don't
13:31know a lot about him
13:32tommy mcdonald is the
13:34the eagles player
13:40that your dad talked about
13:42that you haven't really seen a lot
13:44but
13:51tom mcdonald is downfield
13:53and trying to pull in the path for a touchdown
14:04standing just five nine
14:06tommy mcdonald
14:17receiving yards once
14:35for him to have done that
14:44and that size is ridiculous
14:46especially in that era where you're allow
14:50you're allowed to kill the
14:52offensive players
14:53donald still make a place
15:02on the playing field to know when it began to rain
15:05but he's that
15:06fast thrown is
15:08best hands in football
15:11the best
15:12capital t
15:13no
15:14whoa
15:14whoa
15:15whoa
15:15best hands in football
15:16when raymond barry was playing
15:18no
15:19no i'm not accepting that
15:21did injure i gotta i have to i have to disagree respectfully disagree
15:26no i have a ring
15:27barry was playing
15:28straight of cover for football's best hands
15:31100% true
15:32his hands were phenomenal
15:35fantastic grab in the end zone
15:37at
15:38he would literally walk over
15:42scratch the palms
15:43side of his hand
15:44on those things
15:45to make them tough
15:46and callous
15:46so he could catch any football
15:48i mean
15:49these guys now wear gloves
16:18tommy mcdonald's rubbing his hand on cement
16:20his level
16:20and that's what tommy mcdonald did during his hall fame season
16:23move over ronald mcdonald there's another mcdonald and ken are both gonna sell hamburgers
16:29big max and little max
16:31it was so genuine
16:33it was so genuine
16:34it was the audience into it
16:35and they were laughing
16:37wait a minute
16:38i guess it's cause the cowboys weren't good back then
16:41we're not gonna penalize them for that one season in dallas
16:45and
16:46tommy mcdonald best believe he put up numbers
16:50in his career
16:56said
16:56can we induct tommy mcdonald every year
16:58that guy's a riot
16:59thank you
17:02kenton i love it
17:06you know you have to respect the fact
17:08you know he's jolly
17:10when
17:11he wasn't bitter or sentimental about being passed over for the hall of fame
17:15for 24 years after he got
17:18became eligible
17:21i would have been if i put up those numbers
17:24and they waited nearly a quarter of a century
17:28having fun
17:29having fun
17:35and a dull
17:37except better than those guys
17:38even
17:40even more productive
17:42tommy mcdonald
17:43think of him as the
17:44the antonio brown
17:48except a little bit smaller
17:51it's hard
17:52and it's around
17:54station
17:55well
17:55when it comes
18:00comes to catching passes
18:02let me tell you
18:03tommy mcdonald was a fantastic
18:06fantastic player
18:07you go back
18:08you look at his numbers
18:09expect
18:12especially in that era
18:13pretty awesome
18:15i don't know if Pete Peos belongs that high on the list
18:36probably the most underrated great player
18:39in the history of the franchise
18:42Adrian Burke
18:45loops a pass to Pete Peos
18:47who makes a somersaulting touchdown catch
18:51he was the premier receiver in the league
18:55after Don Hudson retired
18:59led the league in receiving three years in a row
19:01which no eagle receiver has ever done
19:05scored winning touchdown in a championship game
19:09Pete Peos
19:10gathers it in
19:11and the Philadelphia Eagles win their
19:14second world championship
19:15i love Pete Peos
19:20i do
19:23i know this sounds like i'm joking
19:25i'm not
19:25because he was listed as
19:28an end
19:29not a tight end
19:30just an end
19:33in the sky with a pitch to veteran end
19:35Pete Peos a glue handed hoosier
19:37on the Chicago
19:3841
19:39back in the day where you didn't have
19:40tight end
19:43win
19:44wins
19:45just an end
19:46receivers were known as flankers
19:49F
19:50EF
19:51N flanker
19:52at that point where you just kind of blockers
19:54and essentially
19:56another offensive lineman
19:57i never thought of a N actually receiving passes
19:59before a guy like Pete Peos
20:01while he may not have been listed as a tight end
20:04Peos revolutionizing a position
20:06earned him the number six spot
20:08on our list
20:09tight ends
20:10didn't come along for
20:12on offenses
20:13back goes full
20:14fires
20:15slant
20:16touchdown
20:17Zach Ertz
20:18because of a guy like Pete Peos
20:20what if we take this extra tackle we had
20:22and said
20:23run him out on a pattern
20:24his last three years of the league
20:26he had 1,049 yards
20:2810 touchdowns
20:29in a 12 game season
20:32872 yards
20:3310 touchdowns
20:34in a 12 game season
20:35that'd be over 1100
20:38in a 16 game season
20:41864 yards
20:4312 game season
20:45uh it
20:47it
20:47like
20:48are you serious?
20:55two championships
21:03once he met Joe DiMaggio in Atlantic City
21:06and Joe DiMaggio said to him
21:09he said
21:10Pete
21:11Pete
21:12the one thing you gotta do
21:13is you gotta
21:14retire on top
21:16Peos said that that made an impression on him
21:18Pete Peos playing his last game
21:21before
21:23the hometown folks
21:25makes a great catch
21:26of an Adrian Burke pass
21:27for a touchdown
21:30he certainly could have kept playing
21:31but he thought
21:3252 led the league in receiving
21:38maybe it's time to step aside
21:40and he did
21:41yup
21:42little known fact
21:50little known fact
21:52about uh
21:53Pete Peos is
21:54he was a double for Ronald Reagan
21:56in some of the movies
21:58in the uh
21:59forties and fifties
22:02I made that up
22:03and now
22:04number five
22:05is number five
22:06Donovan McNabb
22:07Donovan McNabb
22:08isn't a
22:09where do you begin with
22:10Donovan McNabb isn't a hall of famer
22:12he can't be above hall of famers
22:14that's not how that works
22:15Donovan
22:16he should be
22:17ah beginning
22:18when Eagle fans and Donovan McNabb met for the first time at the 1999 draft
22:24I think
22:24between him and Ricky Williams
22:26and they wanted Ricky Williams
22:27I bet you can see my heart bumping out
22:30with the uh
22:32second pick
22:32off the Eagles
22:33select
22:35Syracuse University
22:39I hope the fans don't take it out on Donovan McNabb
22:41no they better not
22:42they really better not
22:43yeah that was a bunch of nitwicks
22:44they were dopes
22:45uh
22:46these guys wanted Ricky Williams
22:48how did that turn out?
22:49his numbers are phenomenal
22:50and he turned out to be the absolute right pick in 1999
22:56he's
22:56probably
23:01McNabb made six pro bowls and led the Eagles to the playoffs in seven of his nine seasons
23:06as a starter
23:07all the while
23:08doing it with a
23:10less than stellar cast of wide receivers
23:12for all but one of those seasons
23:16receivers were Freddie, Mitchell, James, Thrash, Kevin
23:20something
23:22Kevin something
23:24I can't even remember
23:25Chad Lewis
23:28nobody's
23:29he had a good receiver for one and a half years
23:36you had no idea who his receivers were
23:40he had
23:42God, it's tough to remember
23:44Freddie Mitchell
23:45we had Todd Kingston, James Thrash
23:48Kevin Curtis
23:49he really had one true wide receiver
23:53you know, a difference maker
23:55and we know who that was, that was T.O.
23:57The addition of T.O. in 2004
24:00produced McNabb's best season
24:02throwing for 31 touchdowns
24:03and only eight interceptions
24:06Donovan moves around a lot
24:08he makes plays
24:09very nimble for a big guy
24:12as a quarterback
24:14what a great, great athlete he is
24:17what skills
24:19he's got about
24:20to beat
24:22and he beats every one of them
24:25obviously he's gone wrong
24:27and that is the luxury
24:29that McNabb
24:31until this year
24:32never has
24:33you bad?
24:35you pretty damn awesome
24:37in 2004
24:38the Eagles finally made the Super Bowl
24:41after three straight
24:42NFC Championship game defeats
24:44McNabb went
24:49Super Bowl appearance
24:50it's both a great accomplishment
24:52and also depressing
24:57he lost a bunch
24:58is he the
24:58best quarterback in Eagles history?
25:01yes
25:04but he didn't win the big game
25:09come on
25:10you were not taking
25:12Winsor Foles over
25:13McNabb
25:15he was one of the best football players
25:18on the planet
25:21look at that move
25:22if the video will load
25:25and yet the only three things
25:28that anybody remembers
25:29in Philadelphia
25:30are booing him at the draft
25:31him trying to sell us chunky soup
25:34chunky beef with country vegetables
25:35now has more feed
25:37and then him throwing that soup up
25:38in the Super Bowl
25:39that's it, those are the three
25:41Donovan McNabb takeaways
25:42that we have from an excellent
25:44decade long career
25:46throws up
25:47right in the middle of the huddle
25:49right?
25:49him and his mom did a camel
25:50he can't eat camels before the game
25:52my rule is
25:53if you think you should throw up
25:55maybe let it out
25:57because if you put it down
25:58where does it go next?
25:59you only have so many orifices
26:01orifices
26:02heh
26:04number five
26:05will always
26:06always
26:07love you
26:09for once
26:10our
26:14experts agreed we got it right
26:16with number five
26:18landing
26:25four marks to top ten
26:27makes sense that number five
26:28is at number five
26:29i love that we have
26:30McNabb at five
26:31that's that's like a funny wink
26:33five is an appropriate number
26:35it's his number
26:35he will always love us
26:37i think five's perfect for him
26:38yeah i think five's a very good spot
26:40for number five
26:40and he'll always love you
26:43number four rated teal
26:44brian dawkins
26:48number four
26:55and when he
26:56came out the tunnel
26:57he was in another world
26:59as a teammate
26:59we would all
27:00try to make sure
27:01we got in position
27:02so that we could see him
27:03and what he was going to do that week
27:05he never disappointed
27:06with his entry
27:07yes sir
27:08onto the field
27:21the stadium was shaking
27:23when he would come out
27:24dawkins
27:25dawkins
27:26and on top of that
27:27the motivational speeches
27:28who wouldn't want to go play football
27:29after brian dawkins led them
27:31that thing has beaten
27:32your doggone chest right now

28:51i'm telling you
28:52you don't feel it
28:53coolie catches the football
28:55dawkins comes up and just hammering
28:59brian dawkins might be best known for his
29:01bone rattling hits
29:06what he can do is level a pop
29:08and boy he does
29:09but the hall of fame safety was one of the most versatile players in nfl history
29:15you could watch a game and see him get a strip sack
29:24you could see him get an interception
29:27he is firing deep
29:29brian dawkins interception
29:31he is the only man in nfl history
29:34with more than 25 interceptions
29:37more than 25 sacks
29:38more than 25 forced fumbles
29:40brian dawkins brought something that i don't think anybody else had ever brought to the table
29:48there is no one in eagles history that embodies the philadelphia eagles like brian dawkins
29:54no one
29:55if you ask the eagles fans their favorite player brian dawkins is number one
30:00in philadelphia i know who's one and two but who's three
30:03he might be the most beloved eagle maybe ever
30:07and if there is a guy that you would say
30:12what is the player that personifies the philadelphia fan base
30:16maybe brian dawkins
30:18when you just rank him in terms of love
30:20yeah you're top three
30:21but i think a four four is a perfect spot for dawkins
30:24you're talking about some great players there so i i don't have a big problem with with him being four
30:31the number three greatest eagles
30:32steve
30:33oh i forgot about him
30:35mr van buren here
30:37sorry
30:37number one
30:38has a great name
30:40because he sounds like an old president from the 1800s
30:44which is how i like my football players
30:47to sound like they've dragged us into the french canadian war or something
30:51and just like some early presidents the accomplishments of steve van buren are lost on today's
30:58it's unfortunate it was so long ago that i don't think people fully appreciate how great the guy was
31:03gives the ball to van buren and the great halfback cuts downfield and breaks away for another score
31:08steve van buren legitimately is one of the greatest players in the history of the nfl
31:18you should be reading the chapter on steve van buren
31:22there's not only a chapter of van buren but his name filled the record books
31:27he led the league in rushing in four of his eight seasons and retired as the leading rusher in league
31:33history
31:34he was one of the greatest power backs in the history of the league
31:37when they only played 12 games
31:38if he got to the outside you saw how really fast he was
31:42the combination of his speed and power
31:45made van buren a running back who transcended
31:48and said
31:53if he is zero
31:54van buren was a player ahead of his time
32:01he's one of the few running backs who you could look at
32:07then and in today's NFL
32:17he's like eddie
32:25john riggins in the 40s
32:29yep
32:33this guy was a machine he was a
32:36adrian peterson you know in the 1950s and 40s
32:44as many player comparisons there are for van buren the running back earned
32:52as many nicknames
32:54did you know steve van buren had multiple nicknames
33:02he was called supersonic
33:04he was called wham bam
33:09including moving van
33:12now that's great
33:13moving van buren
33:15amazing
33:20should be higher on the list just based on that
33:27kicked it into
33:29gear delivering two great championship perform
33:35performances
33:36the championship riding on his shoulders
33:38steve van buren blast off right top
33:45tackle for the game winning touchdown
33:47which by the way was the only touchdown in the game
33:49to win
33:51the title
33:52supersonic
33:54steve led the
33:55let me tell you something about
33:56steve van buren
33:59he was a leading rusher of the 40s as you might guess
34:02but he had
34:0478 yards a game
34:07the next closest player a game was
34:09charlie trippy another hall of famer
34:12who was 31 yards a game behind
34:1631 yards a game
34:31i saw the one of him in the mic
34:33are you serious?
34:37are you serious?
34:40are you serious?
34:43what was he doing?"
35:41I think if you're looking at the greatest Philadelphia Eagle, because you could argue that this player is top 10
35:47maybe in the history of the game, you'd probably have to look at Reggie White.
35:51Reggie White was a dominant player in so many different ways.
35:55If you look back at his time with the Eagles, he had more sacks than games played.
35:59He was the model of consistency.
36:01The Eagles went to another level with Reggie White.
36:08Concrete trouble.
36:10After a first step with the USFL's Memphis Showboats, Reggie White landed in Philadelphia in 1985 and made an immediate
36:19impact.
36:20The first game he ever played, he had two sacks.
36:25Reggie White just acquired.
36:27He's going to be a first.
36:28He was so big, yet so quick.
36:32It was unfair when he went against offensive line.
36:35It was really, it was such a myth.
36:37Reggie White is a Giants team that was already contending and won the Super Bowl the next year.
36:43So it's not like he's doing this against bums.
36:46This match, everyone...
36:49Reggie White came in unbolested.
36:52You have to double cover him.
36:54There was nothing that would work.
36:56Reggie White was the single most dominant defensive lineman ever.
37:02Never had fewer than 11 sacks in a season in Philadelphia.
37:07Imagine being an opposing quarterback and looking across the line and seeing Reggie White bearing down on you.
37:13The 19-17 strike short season with any season of any NFL player...
37:21That 1987 season, Reggie White, may have been the season of all time.
37:26It's one of the reasons I think he should be number one on us.
37:30That turns out he's eating a full season of the 80s.
37:32I mean, he would do it, and you wouldn't expect it.
37:36I mean, he did some impersonations that were really good.
37:40I'm going to hit you hard.
37:41He did a great Muhammad Ali.
37:43I'm the greatest, the greatest in the world.
37:45He did a remarkably good Rodney Dangerfield.
37:48I tell you, you know my coach buddy, Ryan?
37:50I tell you, he's so ugly.
37:51When he cried to you in my face, I tell you.
37:53There was a sighting where he was kind of like a little kid.
37:58Eagle on Reggie left Philly Rebay.
38:02I still don't quite understand why you don't find the money to keep Reggie White.
38:06He's Reggie White.
38:14Whatever was left of my childhood and my innocence...
38:17Shame.
38:20Hey, they should have paid him.
38:23I remember him as a Packer because of the...
38:29What?
38:32He was a much better eagle.
38:36Filthy.
38:37He's legal.
38:38Reggie White is legal.
38:40I know...
38:59I think he's in the perfect spot at number two because he could never win here.
39:08We're talking about success and longevity.
39:13He only played there eight years.
39:19Spot for him.
39:26Now, the greatest eagle, Chuck Ben-Aaron.
39:31Who else?
39:35Because when I was younger...
39:44When I was younger, I had an internship and there was a picture of Chuck Ben-Aaron on the wall.
39:50And they said, do you know who that is?
39:52And someone said, no.
39:54And I kid you not, they fired the intern on the spot.
39:56In Philadelphia, if you don't know what Chuck Ben-Aaron is, just leave the room because they're not going to
40:00embrace you.
40:01And it's just embarrassing.
40:06Our number one eagle had one of the best nicknames in all of sports.
40:11Concrete Charlie.
40:12Concrete Charlie.
40:13People think they called him Concrete Charlie because it seemed like he was made of concrete, which is true enough.
40:21No one's going to argue that.
40:22But he really got the nickname because his off-season job was he worked for the Warner Concrete Company as
40:28a concrete salesman.
40:29If you could be nicknamed anything, wouldn't you want concrete in front of your name?
40:35Concrete.
40:36There's something that's just concrete.
40:39You ever see his hands?
40:40His hands look like they're made out of concrete.
40:43You know, I got a crooked finger.
40:45Can you marry me?
40:46My hands look like they were made out of flower petals compared to him.
40:52The key to the Eagles may be number 60, Chuck Bednarik.
40:55The 12-year veteran will probably be called on to play both ways.
41:00It's unfathomable in this day and age to be able to play every single play of any sporting event.
41:08That's Chuck at offensive center opening a hole for Ted Dean.
41:11Here's Chuck on defense fighting off a block to bottle up Bobby Mitchell for a loss.
41:30Here's Chuck.
41:44Are you alright?
41:44I can πο.
41:44How much can he take advantage of when he shakes his hand?
41:44Have you?
41:45Have you.
41:45How much can he take advantage of when he shakes himself?
