It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Here's a right team, wrong uniform that surprised me. Ken Riley is one of the earliest examples of my uniform nerdery. I remembered seeing pictures of him in the old Bengals uniforms from the 1970s and actually made it a point to look up his name and number in an old Packers yearbook (they had the rosters of all the Packers' opponents) at the library because I thought it was so odd that a DB wore number 13.

And yet, I never knew he ever wore the tiger stripes until a few moments ago.

Ken Riley is one of those underrated players who deserves HOF consideration, along with Denver LB Randy Gradishar. Riley spent three seasons in that uniform, picking off eight passes in his final season(1983).

I think he may have played a preseason game with the eagles before going to jax. No pics tho.
