    Great picture. Gives true meaning to the term "smash mouth football".
    Met a guy on a airplane once that played started 3 seasons for the Bears and Giants in the 1952-55 as a wide receiver. I ask him about the current toughness of todays players. He said all those bums get is more money and are fed better. Think he said he got $7000.00/ season.

    My Grandpa is holding the football in this picture of the 1925 Tennessee School for the Deaf (TSD) football team. He was the fullback.
