I read "They Call Me Dirty" a long time ago. He mentioned that he loved when he broke his hand because he got to use his cast as a club to bonk other players with. Dude was nuts.
I was fortunate to live the Cardiac Cards experience as a young teenager. Dobler, Dan Dierdorf, Jim Hart, Mel Gray and so many others who made Sundays fun. They were never a championship team but the St Louis fans loved them.

Yeah, Bidwell screwed it all up by firing Don Coryell... I just heard Dan Fouts a couple days ago in an interview recalling the exciting days of the early-mid Chargers. He said to the interviewer that if Bidwell didn't stupidly fire Don C, "you'd be talking to Jim Hart right now." 🤦♂️
Fun fact: Conrad Dobler once kicked Merlin Olsen in the head during a football game in the early 70s. Five years after Merlin Olsen retired, he starred as the title character in Father Murphy, a short lived NBC series in the early 80s and in one episode there was a cemetery scene where there was a shot of a headstone behind Olsen's character. The name on the headstone, Conrad Dobler.
Lindon..BS...these kids now a days would chew these old dudes up before lunch was served..They're bigger stronger and faster...They just make more money today...As far as pussified..Get your ass down in the pit and we'll see how long you last..
I was a Cowboys fan in the 70's and I hated Dobler. Later, I moved to Kansas City. Dobler had a radio show for a while and he was one of the best I'd heard. I really like the guy now. The shame is that rookies coming out of college can make more in one game than he made in an entire season. Now he's paying for the beating he took. But he's a helluva man. Today I respect him.
That's what made the Lite commercials great. They'd take something the player, coach or celebrity was known for and just let them be themselves. Dobler with his tactics was great as an instigator and causing chaos and disruption.
@@apathybrute5547 Please tell him I studied his style in high school in Baltimore County mid 1970s I played o line at 5 ft 9 170lbs. I played in the grey area too.Long live the whip kick! My idol!!!!
Love these vintage clips. Football was a different game back then. It’s crazy that Dobler was listed as 6’3” 250 and was a starting lineman. That is the size of a linebacker in today’s NFL.
I was a Cards fan since the '50s and loved the way Dobler brought it each and every game. Got to move to St. Louis from Tennessee and finally see him play in person. He was the man...

In his book "They Call Me Dirty" (The cover showed Dobler sinking his teeth into a football that had the air taken out of it.) Dobler showed that he had a sense of humor. In a Cardinals/Eagles game one photo showed him jamming a fist in Manny Sistrunk's facemask. In the caption Dobler remarked that he was just checking to see if Sistrunk remembered to brush his teeth before kickoff.
I remember a clip of Dobler blocking two guys one in each hand and another one was coming around the outside, he promptly stuck his leg out and tripped the third guy!

NO! The Raiders O-Line back in the 70's had Hall Of Famers Jim Otto, Art Shell and Gene Upshaw, Dobler was lacking in skills and talent to play on that team! Dobler was a DIRTY player!
A time when teeth were all over the field, unnecessary roughness was only called if you had a weapon of tried to actually murder someone and no one looked for the ref to throw a flag. When men played the game.
Love it! Wish we had more guys like Conrad in the NFL these days, what I mean by this is I wish the organization wanted guys with Conrad's play style in the modern NFL.

Here's a quote from the man himself: "I see defensive linemen jump to knock a pass down," said Dobler. "When that happened near me, I'd smack 'em in the solar plexus, and that got their hands down real quick." Make that an ELBOW, Conrad.
Ima Sportsphile Somehow I doubt it. The guys a crybaby. A talented crybaby but still a crybaby. I just miss the REAL game. The game has gotten so wussified.
we at Ima Sportsphile get it.....but you will never see that game again....cuz MONEY changed everything and made crybabies out of lots of players who didn't even come close to the talent of Beckam Jr....for you simply need to bookmark Ima Sportsphile and visit often....as we are sure you will find more REAL football that isn't wussified than in any other place....with so much more to come.
Ima Sportsphile yeah, I do understand, but it is sickening to realize how different the game is. Just once, Is LOVE to see OBJ get clocked by a Romanpwski maybe a Lott, or perhaps a Jack Tatum type.
my Bone Daddy the original Sportsphile was at Super Bowl XV in New Orleans in 1981....and while partying at Lucky Pierre's....the true "House of the Rising Sun" in the Crescent City....when Tatum and Fred "The Hammer" Williamson came into the place....as BD sent the Boys from Oakland a complimentary bottle of Dom Perignon and two of Lucky's finest to enjoy to their hardest desire....and Da Raiders returned the favor with 40 yard line tickets....as BD calls Tatum one of the toughest characters he has ever met.

That's when Football was FOOTBALL 💪👍 he was a pretty good player. He was the kid who would throw the second and last punch in the fight in the playground and get caught by the teachers. That's all 🤣 lol!!!
Back when football was football, played by men. I grew up listening to the Cardiac Cardinals and Dobler, Dierdorf, Hart... They never won the Super Bowl for St Louis, but they were usually exciting.
Merlin Olson saying what he said about Conrad Dobler may or may not be true. I don't know. But I can tell you that as an offensive lineman you do not want your man getting to the QB. If it means holding your man, you hold him if necessary. You do what you have to do and need to do (illegal or not)to keep him from getting to the QB or the running back. Either you do that if necessary or you will find yourself sitting on the bench or being cut. The line coach WILL find someone to do the job.
Ma007rk, thanks for your comment....for I believe you are "spot on" in your assessment of what it takes to be an offensive lineman in the NFL...even if it is perceived as "against the rules"....and since you obviously enjoyed this video....you need to visit www.imasportsphile.com....where I have hundreds of vintage NFL videos that provide evidence to your point.
On one episode of Merlon Olson's show Father Murphy, the characters were walking by a graveyard. Upon ine if the tombstones was inscribed the name Dobler. My father got the biggest chuckle out of that.
What a character. getting his autograph at old Met Stadium. Joked with me because I had a Vikings Jersey. Told me I had the wrong Jersey on. I cracked up. Was 9 years old at the time. What a great guy. And funny

-Said no one in the 70s, EVER.

Yeah the commercial where he's in the bleachers and starts a less filling taste great argument was a classic.
That's what made the Lite commercials great. They'd take something the player, coach or celebrity was known for and just let them be themselves. Dobler with his tactics was great as an instigator and causing chaos and disruption.

Here's a quote from the man himself: "I see defensive linemen jump to knock a pass down," said Dobler. "When that happened near me, I'd smack 'em in the solar plexus, and that got their hands down real quick." Make that an ELBOW, Conrad.
I just wish clowns like Odell Beckham Jr ever went over the middle against people like Butkus. He'd be done in, at most, half a season.
or he'd be like Drew....he'd get up and head to the next play
Ima Sportsphile Somehow I doubt it. The guys a crybaby. A talented crybaby but still a crybaby.
I just miss the REAL game. The game has gotten so wussified.
we at Ima Sportsphile get it.....but you will never see that game again....cuz MONEY changed everything and made crybabies out of lots of players who didn't even come close to the talent of Beckam Jr....for you simply need to bookmark Ima Sportsphile and visit often....as we are sure you will find more REAL football that isn't wussified than in any other place....with so much more to come.
Ima Sportsphile yeah, I do understand, but it is sickening to realize how different the game is. Just once, Is LOVE to see OBJ get clocked by a Romanpwski maybe a Lott, or perhaps a Jack Tatum type.
my Bone Daddy the original Sportsphile was at Super Bowl XV in New Orleans in 1981....and while partying at Lucky Pierre's....the true "House of the Rising Sun" in the Crescent City....when Tatum and Fred "The Hammer" Williamson came into the place....as BD sent the Boys from Oakland a complimentary bottle of Dom Perignon and two of Lucky's finest to enjoy to their hardest desire....and Da Raiders returned the favor with 40 yard line tickets....as BD calls Tatum one of the toughest characters he has ever met.
one of the great characters of football from the past
god I miss NFL films
we at www.imasportsphile.com who are responsible for this video post and 4700 more on our site want you to know we have a huge NFL Films video library on our site
Man I wish I could see Conrad Dobler go up against Ndomukong Suh and Vontaze Burfict in their primes. What a battle that would be. No back down from either player.
That mid to late 70’s St. Louis Cardinals offensive was loaded with brutes. Dobler, Dierdorf and Tom Banks put many defenders on their back...
Good video man
I loved Conrad him and Merlin Olsen and Randy White would fight football was football the players handle it. LMAO loved it.
Just mean as hell. Loving it.
R.I.P Conrad Dobler
This mans son was my football coach. Didn’t realize he was the son of a legend
For some reason now I want a crunch bar...CRUNCH TIME!! Lol
Remember Captain Krunch? Mike Kolen, Miami Dolphins no-name defense.
That was back when every player was nasty. They fought for their jobs everyday. Nowadays a player has hurt feelings and they're out for the week.
I use to have his poster on my wall as a young boy. This guy once bit a ref over a call he didn't agree with. I miss the football from the 70's.

Conrad respect
He was the Dick Butkus of the offensive line.
Hardly
Ah, dick butt kiss. The good ole days
He couldn’t warm up Dick Butkus.
Wouldn't even start now. Riding that bench forever these days. 😆
Can only imagine the locker rooms fights... sheez the avg salary in 1970-1975 was around what 7500-10k their medical bills now are enormous
i remember a clothesline dobler put on a blitzing lb, in a pre-season game probably in 72-73, that made my neck hurt.
This man who would have $1 million in fines if he played today.
Yea, but would be paid 100 million
Yeah he would of been fined a million, but he would of been paid 100 million
That's when Football was FOOTBALL 💪👍 he was a pretty good player. He was the kid who would throw the second and last punch in the fight in the playground and get caught by the teachers. That's all 🤣 lol!!!
Back when football was football, played by men. I grew up listening to the Cardiac Cardinals and Dobler, Dierdorf, Hart... They never won the Super Bowl for St Louis, but they were usually exciting.
“Count ur fingers “. 😆😝😆
Merlin Olson saying what he said about Conrad Dobler may or may not be true. I don't know. But I can tell you that as an offensive lineman you do not want your man getting to the QB. If it means holding your man, you hold him if necessary. You do what you have to do and need to do (illegal or not)to keep him from getting to the QB or the running back. Either you do that if necessary or you will find yourself sitting on the bench or being cut. The line coach WILL find someone to do the job.
Ma007rk, thanks for your comment....for I believe you are "spot on" in your assessment of what it takes to be an offensive lineman in the NFL...even if it is perceived as "against the rules"....and since you obviously enjoyed this video....you need to visit www.imasportsphile.com....where I have hundreds of vintage NFL videos that provide evidence to your point.
you sound like a true offensive linemen. You do whatever it takes to protect your brothers.
Please shut the fuck up. I was such a badass back when…….
On one episode of Merlon Olson's show Father Murphy, the characters were walking by a graveyard. Upon ine if the tombstones was inscribed the name Dobler. My father got the biggest chuckle out of that.
"I think I was the master of playing in the gray area of every rule ever made" That's nuts!
all these docs awsome
I was watching this and got so invested I was disappointed when the Crunch Time got cut off at the end there.
What a character. getting his autograph at old Met Stadium. Joked with me because I had a Vikings Jersey. Told me I had the wrong Jersey on. I cracked up. Was 9 years old at the time. What a great guy. And funny
Russell Ebnet, thanks for your comment.....as it is times like this one where a video I posted at on my webpage at www.imasportsphile.com touches off a childhood memory from many years ago....for I believe my 2300 hrs. of vintage sports, comedy and music videos that I am currently in process of posting on my webpage....are "full to the brim" with memories of glorious days gone by....and I want the memories to be accessible to fans of those time forever.
Awsome Vid😃🏈
Love him.
