Dante "Dan" Pastorini reached legendary status in the 1970s as the dashing young quarterback of the Houston Oilers. Selected No. 3 overall in the 1971 NFL Draft out of the University of Santa Clara in California, Pastorini arrived in Houston with the expectation he could rescue the moribund team and take them to the top of the league. It didn't take long for Houstonians to truly embrace Pastorini, and with salt-of-the-earth head coach Bum Phillips and colorful teammates like Billy "White Shoes" Johnson, Elvin Bethea and Earl Campbell, the memorable "Luv Ya Blue" era was born. Before long, the entire country was shaking Columbia Blue pom-poms for the Oilers and Pastorini's legacy -- bolstered by a record-setting role in the 1974 Pro Bowl -- was cemented in place.After his playing years were over, Pastorini remained in the embrace of his adopted hometown and with an "Official Texan" decree signed by the governor himself, Pastorini laid down roots in the energy capital of the world. Immediately after his 13-year NFL career concluded, Pastorini stayed in sports by piloting a variety of racecars and boats, winning events and setting records along the way on both land and water.Always anxious to give back to the city that still reveres him, Pastorini has supported countless charities throughout the years, none more so than the Be An Angel Foundation, which helps profoundly deaf children and families supporting multiple children with disabilities. Pastorini currently serves as Chairman of the Board of the well-respected entity.Pastorini also progressed in the business world, owning and operating DP Quality Foods, working as a consultant for human resources giant Insperity, serving as a Senior Account Manager for DataWorks Plus and filling the role of COO at Turbine Metal Technology. Through the years, Pastorini helped with the marketing efforts of industry leaders like Seagram's Spirits, the Pro Rodeo Cowboys Association, Lamborghini Motorcars, Coors Light, Mopar Performance, Kendall Oil and Champion Spark Plugs. More recently, Pastorini was inducted into the Houston Sports Authority Hall of Fame alongside fellow honorees George Foreman, A.J. Foyt and Jackie Burke. Pastorini also is enshrined in the Italian-American Sports Hall of Fame, the Impact A Hero Hall of Fame and is one of Mike Ditka's Gridiron Greats. In 2019, the prestigious Houston Touchdown Club named Pastorini "Touchdowner of the Year." In 2020 he is selected for the East West Shrine Bowl Hall of Fame in Tampa, FL. A veteran of football broadcasting, both in radio and television, Pastorini remains in the spotlight to this day, living in the shadow of downtown Houston.

We consult a higher authority this week to help us dig into the story of the NFL's former Houston Oilers - one of the American Football League's founding franchises in 1960, and the predecessor to today's Nashville-based Tennessee Titans.   Before decamping for divinity school in the late 1990s and a second career as a vicar in the US Anglican church, Fr. Ed Fowler ("Loser Takes All: Bud Adams, Bad Football & Big Business") spent over 30 years as both a writer and columnist for sports sections at major newspapers such as the Austin American-Statesman, Kansas City Star, Chicago Daily News, and finally, the Houston Chronicle - where he spilled plenty of ink on the trials and tribulations of Houston's first professional football team.   The Oilers were owned throughout their existence by Houston oil industry entrepreneur Bud Adams - and dominated the AFL's early years by winning titles in 1960 and 1961, and barely missing out on a third (a double-OT loss to the Dallas Texans in the 1962 AFL Championship Game).   Post-merger, the Oilers spent the bulk of the '70s as NFL also-rans until the coach "Bum" Phillips-led "Luv Ya Blue" era (1978-80), that netted two straight (though losing) AFC Championship Game appearances and featured stars like Elvin Bethea, Billy "White Shoes" Johnson and rookie RB sensation Earl Campbell.   Though the team consistently made the playoffs from 1987-93 behind the QB wizardry of CFL star Warren Moon, the Oilers posted losing records in virtually every season otherwise. Adams, who first threatened to move the team in the late 1980s, followed through at the end of the 1996 season and relocated the Oilers to Tennessee - where they became the "Tennessee Oilers" for the 1997 (Memphis) and 1998 (Vanderbilt Stadium) seasons, before permanently converting to the "Titans" in 1999.  The Titans retained the team's previous history and records, and the Oilers name was officially retired by then-league Commissioner Paul Tagliabue, preventing the name from ever returning.  The NFL would return to Houston just three years later with a new franchise, the Texans.

Billy “White Shoes” Johnson played 14 NFL seasons with Houston, Atlanta and Washington and 1 year in Canada. A wide receiver and return specialist, his famous “funky chicken” end zone dance made him an all-time favorite. He was also a 3X All-Pro and made the Pro Bowl 3X including winning the MVP of the game in 1975. He's also a member of the College Football HOF and the NFL's All-Decade teams of the 70s & 80s. He's also on the NFL's 75th & 100th Anniversary All-Time teams and is the only member of the 75th Anniversary team not (yet) in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.3:12 – “Wow.

Tony came right out of the gate in our first show since before the holidays and blasted the further wussification of America with the latest Gillette ads crying about "toxic masculinity" while air heads watch shameful shows like the Bachelor and Bachelorette on Disney owned ABC where a single loser guy gets to bang 15 shallow women or where 1 woman gets to sample a bunch of bone head bros. He also exposed the irony of athletes like Reggie Bush for claiming the Clemson national championship team which went to the WH got a "slap in the face" for being served fast food, while he scammed a free house for his parents in San Diego, got to drive a luxury car and cost his USC team tons of scholarships, a national championship and his own Heisman trophy for being a selfish, greedy, pampered, celeb sniffing hypocrite athlete who finished his career in Buffalo with minus yards rushing.  Former Kansas City Chiefs kicking great Nick Lowery joined the show for a great conversation about kickers, his career, the stash and the high hopes for this KC team at home against the incredible Tim Brady and the New England Patriots in the AFC championship game late Sunday afternoon at Arrowhead Stadium. Lowery has been very active in the community and won NFL Man of the year 5 times, worked with at risk and disabled youth, the homeless, sports bullying and is now is an advocate for Pharma company Kannalife which has developed a new therapeutic and patented chemical entity to treat a multitude of neurodegenerative diseases like HE, CTE and Drug dependency. He also picked the Chiefs to beat the Patriots by 10 points on Sunday, and yes, he is a homer. As we wrapped up with Nick, another former NFL star joined us live at Moonshine Philly. West Chester University star and 8 year San Francisco 49'er Linebacker Lee Woodall. He won a SB in his rookie year against the San Diego Chargers in Miami in the Steve Young 6 td game after taking over from the reigns after Joe Montana to KC. We talked lots of football, how small college guys like him, Widener college standout Billy White Shoes Johnson and many others paved the way for NFL teams to look closer at small college standouts. Lee and his wife Terry also do lots of work in the community and are very active in Autism awareness in the Philly area. Our friend Buffy Harakidas joined the conversation on the phone to talk about the 25th anniversary of the best party in Philly - the Hair O' the Dog coming up whit Saturday night at the amazing Crystal Tea Room in Philly.(hairothedog.com) She started this event to raise money for charity while putting on a fun, big name entertainment, celebrities and regular folks mingling filled bash which has raised millions over the years. This Saturday's party will benefit the Morris Animal Refuge, one of the only remaining privately funded open admissions shelters that has never turned an animal away and has a 97% save rate. www.morrisanimalrefuge.org We also invited Lee Woodell and his wife to join as as Luigi guaranteed he would get us all dolled up by our friend Michael Domenico at Domenico's Formal Wear (domenicstuxedos.net) They've been dressing our guys and listeners for years and offer a $100 dollar tux rental for Hair O the Dog customers. We wrapped up with our old pal Ken Cage from Airplane Repo who previewed an open to the public party coming up Monday to launch his new on-line series for all of the repo fans who have been asking for more. @RenegadeRepo will be rolling out soon and we'll be on hand at @2SPBrewing in Aston, Delaware County.
