Brian Billick Once Appeared on Match Game Back in the Seventies
Here is more late seventies goodness, with former Ravens coach Brian Billick appearing on the old game show Match Game. The leather jacket is top notch, as is the immaculately maintained hair. It’s a little disappointing that he didn’t have a mustache, though. Get with the times, Brian.
Billick first appears at the 1:08 mark, letting the audience know that “up until a few weeks ago, I was playing professional football.” Billick was drafted in the 11th round in 1977 by the San Francisco 49ers, but never appeared in a NFL game, which would place this appearance sometime that year.

This is the game show that had that mass murderer on it, right?
February 15th, 2013 at 4:51 PM
That was the Dating Game. The serial killer won, too, but the bacholerette refused to go out with him b/c he gave her the creeps. Probably a sound decision.

The first guy in the clip looked eerily like Rick Reilly making one of his douche faces.
February 15th, 2013 at 4:53 PM
They never could get a charge to stick to Charles Nelson Reilly
February 15th, 2013 at 4:54 PM
Charles Nelson Reilly: Legend
Based on his performance in The Running Man, Richard Dawson should have had more movie roles as well.

about 4-5 years ago, some decent blog, which is probably now dead, had a nice post on this. That video never gets old. GSN used to show the actual episode once in a blue moon.

Match Game is definitely the best game show ever.
February 15th, 2013 at 4:58 PM
Can’t go wrong with the Match Game but I was always a fan of the $25,000 Pyramid…Dick Clark was no Gene Rayburn though
February 15th, 2013 at 5:00 PM
B/R had this in 2008. cmon, that’s funny.
February 15th, 2013 at 5:00 PM
I think it’s Bill Simmons who occasionally mentions that it would still work today. I agree.
February 15th, 2013 at 5:01 PM
Now I haven’t checked the old posts…but here’s Ray Edwards foray into boxing.
Even soccer players are ashamed.

Love Connection during the Chuck Woolery era is in a class of its own.
February 15th, 2013 at 5:02 PM
I thought they tried it a few years ago but the best they could come up with celebrity-wise was the likes of Vicki Lawrence…the panel makes the show
February 15th, 2013 at 5:03 PM
Topless Anna Kournikova. NSFW
You’re welcome

Remember Studs on MTV? That was the show that taught me that people who wear vests with no shirt underneath actually exist.

February 15th, 2013 at 5:06 PM
This is true.
February 15th, 2013 at 5:07 PM
Number of victims for Alcala: 8-130…..that’s quite a range there Wikipedia.

February 15th, 2013 at 5:13 PM
Not much of a screening process.
She stuck the landing on her jump to a conclusion.

What, no mirrors at your house?

Twas a simpler time.

Sadly I don’t have the guns to pull off that look.

Adaora, an underrated addition to this year’s swimsuit issue
Why hello there
February 15th, 2013 at 5:32 PM
Is that going to give a computer virus like it did Chandler Bing?
February 15th, 2013 at 6:05 PM
Jose Chung, FTW. Top 5 X-Files episode.
February 15th, 2013 at 6:18 PM
It wasn’t on MTV. It was syndicated.
February 15th, 2013 at 7:40 PM
Paul lynde ftw

Match Game is probably my favorite game show, although I’m a huge, huge fan of game shows in general.
This is near the best panel with Brett, Charles, Richard, and Fanny in those four spots. Ideal would probably be Nipsey Russell or Gary Burghoff on top-left, then a blonde bimbo w/ big boobs for Richard to have fun with on bottom-left.
February 15th, 2013 at 10:53 PM
Her ass looks like it got beat with a 2×4.
February 15th, 2013 at 10:54 PM
Well it probably has been reamed out many times
February 15th, 2013 at 10:56 PM
Bet you could find a video of that somewhere on the internet.
February 16th, 2013 at 2:54 PM
I was his opponent
on the Match Game!
