Gold is having a pretty good run too, hitting $1550 an ounce. But on a percentage basis, silver is doing better.

As I recall Redskins had 10 touchdowns and Giants had 6. The 10, and the 16 total, are still records, as well as the 113 total points. Those have held up for 53 years.

We used a slide rule in Chemistry class to do the various calculations. That was 1967-68. The pocket calculator wasn't in service until 1971.
