name the franchise #4 (answered)

[Arlo]

The Eagles have definitely played the Saints (2000, for instance)... You're thinking in the wrong direction...

[Petey]

Hey Arlo, I looked this up and the only current franchise that hasn't played NO is the Texans.

[Arlo]

What petey says is true... but it's not the Texans. Man, I must have beem in a fiendish mood when I wrote this. Probably because you guys usually get all the ordinary questions within minutes...

Anyway, here's some more info:

The three brothers were named Annis, Bill and Frank.

A famous QB-RB duo on this team wa sknown as the Gold Dust Twins.

A famous game from this team's past became known as the Mud Bowl. The field (and the ball) were so muddy that the QB attached thumbtacks to his fingers...

With apologies for running a trick play...

Looks like everone assumed this was an American team since you said Pro team, Arlo. I believe you are talking about the Toronto Argonauts. The trio of brothers were the Stukus or something like that, and accomplished their feat against Montreal (somewhere in the early 1930's). No, I am not up on Canadien football history. Google can be very helpful. Hehe. Sorry if that is cheating.<br><br><span class=gensmall>Accepted as answer by Arlo on 03 Nov 2002 05:05 pm EST.</span>
