Loved him in Blazing Saddles……he was lucky to have played before CWD got all the players. RIP

Unbelievable football player. I was lucky enough to meet him at a dinner several years RIP #51.

Keeping you on your toes. It takes more effort to be completely wrong about everything in a post than folks realize.

Except for the RIP part - I have great respect for the guys who played back before it was touch football.
