Larry Binion, the punter from Arizona Western, who messed up the punt in the U.C.L.A. game and we ended up losing the game. I bet that was a long plane flight back to Knoxville that night. |

Made the team with Phoenix Cardinals ( at that time, I was living in Phoenix and they were called the Phoenix Cardinals) but could not learn play book, so after one season he was cut. He then ended up in Saints training camp and was cut because he could not learn play book |

| Didn't realize Aaron Rodgers played Juco. I just read a little about it and he has a pretty cool story. He didn't go to Juco because of grades, he went because nobody would give him a scolly to play football. |

I've heard that he is a very "football smart" man...I hope Chavis is a prophet! |
