^ awesome.
In case you ever wondered why there are so many rules in the NFL to protect the offense, this is why. Butkus.

I had a poster of him on my wall as a kid, I wanted to wear #51 in pop warner but they made me a fullback so I got stuck with 35. Stupid rule.

Leo, a master boat builder from England (Sampson Boat Co), is building something very similar up near Puget Sound. And it’s downright fascinating.

A lot of those guys lived and trained in Tampa. In high school I worked at a supermarket near their gym. Dusty, Steve Strong and Superstar Billy Graham used to come in the store. We'd talk to them and they'd grunt and mumble something and stroll out the door. Hulk Hogan used to play in a band at a club right across the street but he was behind these guys by a few years.

I remember Bobo Brazil from the 70's coming to the Toledo Sports Arena.

When Bobo posted to this thread he would always drop a random photo which is mandatory.
