And he did it all while smoking a whole pack of cigarettes each game! Guys were tough back then!

R.I.P., Mr. Pihos.

I wish more highlight reels existed of these PreTV Heros.

Frozen fields and all.

^ I agree. I have his 1951 bowman card. You have to love the old timers. I wish the Eagles would stick to the throwback uniforms. Pay homage to those who came before you. They shaped the game, and got the league to where it is today. Like cupcake says, Love of the game!

RIP Pete Pihos. An all-time great from the pre-TV (a/k/a, small-money) years. Those guys played for the love of the game.
