I watched a couple of old interview snippets with Bob Lilly and Sam Huff yesterday, and both said Jim Brown just crushed them when he ran through them, and both of them were pretty big, and very dominant defenders. I also never knew that Art Modell gave him an ultimatum between football and movies, and he chose movies. I always thought he retired after only 9 seasons due to the way he played and simply being to abused to continue.

When my sister first started at the cancer agency, her worst days were children and people her age.
The Iron Sheik had a pretty funny Twitter account that will be missed.
