Who in the world is Harold Carmichael? I'd sooner retire Vince Papali's number. At least I've heard of Vince Papali.

Think the bigger question is how the fuck did that name get through on the birth certificate.

HAROLD Carmichael? Jesus it would've been better to go with Eugene or at the very least Michael Carmichael, but the parents landed on Harold? WTF.

Or I don't sit around eating cheese steaks all day 'cause I don't give enough of a crap about Eagles football to know who Harold Carmichael is.

He's an all time great. Was the originator of rhe pass catch streak. Was the ultimate possession receiver at 6'9 and had about 80 TDs in an Era where WR didn't put up huge numbers.

He was a hellava WR. I recall as a kid watching Darrell Greens rookie season covering him thinking why wouldn't they just toss it high they would complete every pass as he had him by over a foot taller.
