Don't let this distract you from the fact that in 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba "Spare Tire" Dixon.
If he was good enough to make it to the last cut with the guys the Steeler had he probably could have found a second or third string spot on some other team But he decided to turn to acting
Considering there were only 26 teams in the NFL when he was cut in 1971, a 22-year-old O’Neill might have been able to make a roster in today’s 32-team NFL.
@Sipseyhiker It was all for the best. If he made the team he might be been a backup player for a few years(He wasn't cracking the steel curtain starting lineup) then might have done something else post playing career.
@Sipseyhiker Good point. I think the world is a better place because of Al Bundy and that probably would never happened if he had made the team. And it turned out better for Al, as well.
@@joemckim1183 Definitely for the best. He was making north of $10milliom a year + residuals from Modern Family. Still had all his faculties too. Not bad for a guy in his 70's.
He probably remembers Al's amazing four touchdowns in one game, and thinks they were at the Steelers camp together. He was after all, just a young buck, awestruck by Al's stellar performance!
I loved Bradshaw at LA Tech. I hated him at Pittsburgh. I love him in the booth, movies, interviews, anything today. I guess we've had a love/hate relationship! LOL 😅 He is great.
Chuck Noll’s first year was 1969. Terry Bradshaw’s first year was 1970. Something is just a little off but Bradshaw is still one of my childhood heroes.
Bradshaw was in Married with Children and I would assume they traded stories about the Steelers and maybe Bradshaw mixed meeting Oneal with some other nice guy who was also cut. I can't blame him, that was 50 years ago, I have like half a dozen stories from 30 years ago that I remember differently from other people who lived the same things.
Victor Granados I agree. Terry Bradshaw is my favorite Steelers player of all time like Clemente is my favorite Pirate. Bradshaw is a complex person & fascinating to me. I probably shouldn’t have pointed out the discrepancy but the football history part of me compelled me. I really wish there were more QBs like him.
Same here - as a kid I "hated" Terry Bradshaw with a passion because he beat the Real Captain America, Roger Staubach, and America's Team. And I made fun of him for being a "dumb" country hick, even though I grew up in Northeast Texas just a stone's through from Terry's hometown of Shreveport, LA . But as an adult, I learned about the man and the football player and came to immensely respect him for his accomplishments because you don't just get "lucky" and be the first NFL quarterback to win 4 Super Bowl Rings, you have to be a genius, a leader, and a team player to do that, and his accomplishments and humanity as a person and the trials and tribulations and FAITH he had, and him being the first professional athlete that came out and and really spoke about his depression, his ups and downs, etc., and that he was just like everyone else just that God had blessed him with that Blonde Bomber arm and a mind to read defenses.
I think Bradshaw may have his facts wrong. His rookie season was in 1970. Ed O'Neil was cut the *previous year* during training camp. O'Neil himself sad as much in a separate interview he did on this very show. So they couldn't possibly have played together.
@@bunpeishiratori5849 ...it would appear Terry was handed the wrong script...I wonder why he would feel a need to lie about something that doesn't matter?
@@olofpalme63 old guys mis-remembering stories to make them sound more interesting seems to be a old guy thing. They all do it, it's why first hand accounts are horrible ways to record history.
Terry Bradshaw CMTFU! His response to being shown the Pastorini to Renfro in the End Zone for a TD was called out of bounds! Terry's response was "well after looking at these 4 Superbowl rings on my fingers, I can only say? That's a hell of a catch!" I laughed for ten minutes straight! And when on national television he showed everyone how they deep fried a Turkey for Thanksgiving down in Louisiana! I think the was snow on the ground? And it all flamed up! But i tried it just one time! And have never put a turkey in the oven since! Deep fried Turkey will make your johnson jump up and bark like Lassie! Watch Terry everytime he is on TV! Same with Ed O'Neil!
Terry Bradshaw did not play with Ed O'Neill on the Steelers. Ed went to the Pittsburgh Steelers training camp in 1969, got cut by Chuck Noll, and never played football after that. Bradshaw's rookie year was 1970 (no. 1 NFL draft pick, I believe ). Makes for a good story, however. O'Neill has told this story a few times, including on the Rich Eisen show.
I noticed it, too. After so many years, people confuse times and events, but the only way Bradshaw and O'Neill would have attended the same training camp is if O'Neill had returned for another shot at making the team. Plus, Bradshaw's stories tend to change with the weather.
I love Terry. If anyone's interested look up Terry's comments about Tom Brady's Super Bowl wins, Terry said something like I was in four of um and I won um all. LOL!!! Tom can't say he won all his!!!! Funny as hell.
@@MichaelMartinez-kk9km Yeah no doubt! You can see a little bit of awkwardness there when Eisen knows its bullshit and then Terry sees that he knows it.
CTE doesn't mean you're a bad person guess Ed O'neills story with his dad saying 'you want to get out of here now...?' rings truer than all those on Bradshaw's hand
@@landgsmith On the bright side, though, if he had made in onto that team, would the world have Al Bundy? Sure, somebody would have played the character but, dammit, Ed O'Neil IS Al Bundy.
Here's a true story for you. After a game, Terry went to Football great Al Davis as they left the field. He begged him to sign him to Oakland because he had no reason to stay in Pittsburgh; Coach Knoll wouldn't play him. Al said he'd love to, but he was already handling 3 QBs that thought they should start. Al said he was good friends with Chuck and said he'd talk to him to help Terry out. Al suggested to Chuck he really should start Bradshaw; he's talented. Coach respected Al's advice and started Bradshaw. The rest is NFL history. And that cost the Oakland Raiders a larger part in that history.
Nothing personal against Bradshaw, he seems like a legitimate, sincere fella, but he was not the reason they won at all during their four championship seasons, and was oft the reason they lost. They had HoF players at HB, WR, OT, C and OG and yet the offense is rarely mentioned as a foot note because of the ever-lauded defense, a juxtaposition that also left Bradshaw the eternal culprit of any offensive blunder or misstep. Almost any QB of that era would have won with the Steelers deep roster talent, but who knows if a larger ego could have had the same success in the system which Bradshaw thrived.
@@hahajones I agree. I was just relaying a story told by Al Davis. If Al really wanted him, he would have gotten him. Bradshaw doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame based on his numbers IMO: 51% completion %; 7.2 yards per pass; 212 Tds and 210 Int's. That doesn't satisfy my criteria; especially with the talent he had around him.
Think about it like this... the 6 main cast members of “Friends” still earn $20 million a year, EACH in residuals. Ed is earning a check for both “Married with Children” and “Modern Family”. I mean I bet the Modern Family check is around or more then “Friends” $20 million because that Friends deal was negotiated back in the 1990s
indeed but I meant his QB days in the REAL NFL !! I am 56 now and remember Terry took a pounding !! He never got enough credit because of ALL the GREATS on those Steeler teams ...( and I am NOT a fan of Pitt } but always respected greatness !
actually they werent. onei.p l was there in 69 and bradshaw drafted in 70. In fact in Oneils interview the year before about his time at Pittsburgh he never mentions Bradshaw but intead the previous quarterback Terry Hanratty
Met Terry Bradshaw in a men's room in Upstate NY, he was just out of college and he was rated as the highest QB in the NFL draft that year, but wasn't sure who was going to pick him. He was the main speaker at a Football Boosters event that I attended. My wife wanted me to escort her to the Lady's room and as she was walking up to the door he came up and pointed to the drinking fountain in the wall and asked her "is that a drinking fountain" trying to break the ice and flirting with her...I had gone into the men's room and he came in and stood at the urinal next to me. My initial observation was he really didn't seem that intelligent, but that was his southern boy personality that he used to charm people. His speech mostly about his Christian values went over very well that night.
cough cough O Neill has done more than two series. He did John from Cincinnati that last 10 episodes, Dragnet last one season and 22, and the Big Apple which lasted only 8 episodes
Bradshaw's lucky he gets residuals from Smokey and the Bandit. I heard Chevy Chase say a few years ago that he doesn't get any from Christmas Vacation. And that came out years after Smokey.
Bradshaw wasn't in Smokey and the Bandit; he was in Hooper. I don't know how those contracts work. Maybe the difference is in getting paid up front vs getting a percentage down the road. Maybe Chevy wanted his cash up front in case the movie didn't stay popular and Bradshaw was just happy to be in a movie so he settled for chum change up front and a percentage/residuals later.
Ed O Neil said he was in Steelers camp in 1969. Bradshaw was drafted in 1970. Someone is confused. Either Ed got the year wrong or Bradshaw has Ed O Neil confused with someone else.
Well Ed O'Neill tells the story completely different!! he said it was a 1969... Terry Bradshaw would not have have even been there yet!! So why does Terry Bradshaw think that he played in the same training camp as him when he did not, is he just making this up for a storytelling opportunity??
@@erichvonmolder9310 Andy Griffith is incorrect. The Andy Griffith show ran for eight years and Matlock ran for nine years. Vicky Lawrence is also incorrect. The Carol Burnett show did run for over ten seasons but Mama's Family did not. So far, we have three strikes and we are still sitting with only Ed O'Neill.
So they probably met each other way back when but it wasn't exactly training camp as Terry remembers. It seems strange to me that Terry would lie about something like that.

Priceless!
Ed made it to the last cut, that's pretty damn impressive!
Especially considering the LBs Pittsburgh had at the time.
Mean Joe Greene, I'm sure it was hard for Ed to compete with him for position that year. 1969, I believe.

But he decided to turn to acting
@@Tsyroc Ed O'Neill was in camp with the steelers 1970, Jack Ham didn't get to the Steelers until 1971 and Jack Lambert didn't get there until 1974.

Nobody tells a story better than Terry Bradshaw.
The legend of Al Bundy continues
Ed Oneil from modern family is a black belt in ju jitsu and was linebacker in
the steelers camp
Gracie Jiu Jitsu for year and years now.
And he scored 4 touchdowns for Polk High in 1966.

Terry: “Ed do you remember when you got cut?”
Ed: “yeah...thanks”
No doubt Ed O'Neill is an athlete. He earned his black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu when he was in his 60's!
He still had to be pretty good to make it to final cuts. They were considering him.
Knoll told him that the Eagles needed LBers, and he could probably make their squad, but Ed was over football at that point.
I remember the Married with Children episode with Terry Bradshaw in it where Al blew up the scoreboard dedicated to him lol
I loved Bradshaw at LA Tech. I hated him at Pittsburgh. I love him in the booth, movies, interviews, anything today. I guess we've had a love/hate relationship! LOL 😅 He is great.

Met Terry Bradshaw in a men's room in Upstate NY, he was just out of college and he was rated as the highest QB in the NFL draft that year, but wasn't sure who was going to pick him.
He was the main speaker at a Football Boosters event that I attended.
My wife wanted me to escort her to the Lady's room and as she was walking up to the door he came up and pointed to the drinking fountain in the wall and asked her "is that a drinking fountain" trying to break the ice and flirting with her...I had gone into the men's room and he came in and stood at the urinal next to me.
My initial observation was he really didn't seem that intelligent, but that was his southern boy personality that he used to charm people. His speech mostly about his Christian values went over very well that night.
if anyone should have been a Steeler is Youngstown, Ohio /damn near Pittsburgh native Ed O'Neill.
When it comes to sports I play with myself. Less drama that way
Bradshaw wasn't there that year.
Hey Terry you didn't get my check?
Al Bundy as a football player. That would be differant
