2025 Card-vent Calendar: December 7

December 7, 2025:
1992 Pro Set Power #84 Haywood Jeffires

 If your second-favorite NFL team isn't the Houston Oilers, can we even be friends?
 
While we're at it, go ahead and rank the four standout Oilers wide receivers of the early '90s.
My list:
1. Ernest Givins
2. Haywood Jeffires
3. Drew Hill
4. Curtis Duncan
 
Webster Slaughter doesn't count, too late to the game. 
 

As a footnote, here's a cool personal story.  My little brother was a big Oilers fan back in the day.  So much so that my dad actually got him an Oilers duffel bag one Christmas.  He ended up using it as his school backpack for a few years.  How my dad got a Houston Oilers-ass duffel bag in 1990 in Milwaukee, I'll never know, but he made it happen.
