Fun fact: every song written between 1968 and 1971 was about Patti Boyd.

@davidjroth.bsky.social I know you and Drew don’t remember Guys anymore, but just today I discovered there is a thing called the Professional Football Researchers Association, and they have a “Hall of Very Good” for players not in the Hall of Fame. An absolute bonanza of Guys!
