John McVay thrilled for grandson, dismissive about 'The Fumble'

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- John McVay laughed when reminded about "The Miracle at the Meadowlands" earlier this week, but not in a warm, inviting kind of way.

He was asked how often it crosses his mind.

"Never," McVay said, "unless somebody brings it up."

It was brought up, delicately, because the Los Angeles Rams, guided by McVay's up-and-coming grandson, are in town to play the New York Giants on Sunday. McVay carved out a legacy as a front-office executive with the San Francisco 49ers, teaming with Bill Walsh to build what became a dynasty through the 1980s and 1990s.
