Funny thing about Dermontti Farra Dawson: He never fancied himself a football player, let alone a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

anyone know off the top of their head how big he was in his prime? I know the numbers nowadays are ballooning but just curious because he was so fast as well...

thanks.

"When I went to Chicago, they asked me to show them how we run the football," said Hoge, who left the Steelers after the '93 season and signed with the Bears. "I drew it up and said, 'We pull the center.' They said, 'We can't do that.' I told them, then you can't run the ball like we did in Pittsburgh."

Beautiful.

Just to combine this thread with the Finny b-day thread, I'm older than Dirt.

By about 11 months.
