GUEST,# Looking for an OLD football poem (10) RE: Looking for an OLD football poem 17 Aug 21


The following gem was used as an
introduction in a letter to the Football Writers o f America.
"Ballad of the T Formation. "
( To the tune of "McNamara's
Band." )
"Ah , the ends they crash and the
tackles smash and the guards they
submarine,
"Th e halfbacks lunge, the fullbacks
plunge, the center stoops between,
"But, lo, the cerebral quarterback,
standing all serene,
"He merely gives the ball away and
keeps his jersey clean."
—Football News.

I'm all buggered up here. Sorry about the mess but I want to make sure I don't lose this. It is from The Technique, Atlanta, Georgia, p.11, but because it's some sort of pdf(?) file I can't link to it.

Guest, The Og: You have one helluva memory.
