George Halas influence? He and Allen did not part on the best of terms when George became the RAMS HC. Maybe he had some sway with the producer?
I never thought about that, but George Allen must of been a real PIA because every owner he worked for could not stand him.

George Hallas, IMO, might have just been upset he took the Rams job because he took the Rams to court and the court ruled in favor of the Rams to hire Allen back in 1966.

Daniel Farrell Reeves, Rams owner who watched his team improve and become serious contenders under George Allen, could not stand him and it was well documented. IMO, the problem between the two was that Reeves believed in college players and is given credit for pioneering the scouting system in the NFL. Also Reeves never met a single malt, he did not like and Allen's favorite beverage was milk, so there was that too. Reeves fired Allen twice, hired him back after a player revolt and then fired him again at the end of the 1970 season.

Edward Bennett Williams, Redskins owner, once said of George Allen: "George was given an unlimited budget and he exceeded it." Anyways Allen was there from 1971-1977 and they parted ways because Williams was tired of all the old guys on the team and Allen wanted to head back to Southern California.

Carroll Rosenbloom, went against the wishes of his son Steve and Don Klosterman and brought Allen in 1978 only to fire him after two preseason games because he felt he made a major mistake. Unpresented and could you imagine if that happen today?
 
couldn't stop Billy Kilmer.
Now there's something you didn't/don't hear often!

Not so fun fact: The first jersey ever bought for me as a wee lad was a Billy Kilmer 17 (I grew up in Maryland). My pops told me he couldn't throw a spiral, and for some reason, that pissed 5 year old me off. Redskins were off the table.

Saw the Rams on TV later that same season and was hooked by them thar horns. Rams fan since '77!!
