On Dec. 16, 1984, the former St. Louis Cardinals playoffs arrived early.
Entering the final week of the season, they were 9-6, and in second place in the NFC East. They trailed their next opponents, 10-5 Washington, and were ahead of the 9-7 New York Giants, who had lost the day before.
St. Louis had defeated Washington earlier in the season, meaning that the final game between the two amounted to a division championship.
A win on the road, and the Cardinals would be in the playoffs for the second time in three years. A Cardinals loss would put them behind New York, ending the season.

In 2003 American musician Alicia Keys cofounded Keep a Child Alive with Leigh Blake, an HIV/AIDS activist, with the goal of making urgently needed HIV medications accessible to children and families in Africa. The organization’s mission has since expanded to include other services, such as clinical care and psychosocial support as well as a commitment to end the AIDS epidemic. Keep a Child Alive now supports HIV/AIDS programs in several African countries and India. Most prominent among its fund-raising efforts is the annual Black Ball, a black-tie gala that includes live musical performances.
