NOTES:

Pat Beach. One of the OG from Tecmo Bowl on the NES who played for the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts back then didn’t have much. Dickerson (Bentley) was the bread and butter on the run plays. Trudeau didn’t get any love- and when Brooks was being covered.. Beach was THE MAN. I loved throwing it to Pat near the endzone and just saying, “BEEAACCCHHH,” As I threw a TD to the underutilized TE. It was good times.

Over the years, Pat became a lunch pail TE that I was really interested in, but unlike Cap Boso, Beach actually had some great cards. I had tried Pat in the past but didn’t have any luck. He had a really narrow and random response window for many years. It took me three tries but I was very excited to finally nab him.
