A couple more of my favorite Colts.

John Mackey

"In 2000, John Mackey was diagnosed with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD). FTD differs from other causes of dementia such as Alzheimer's disease. The areas of the brain affected by FTD are the frontal and anterior temporal lobes which control reasoning, personality, movement, speech, social graces, language, and some aspects of memory."

Joe Don Looney

"Few needed more forgiving than Joe Don Looney, killed seven years ago last week - September 24, 1988 - down near the Mexican border, 8.6 miles north of Study Butte, when his motorcycle missed a curve on State Highway 118. Joe Don, 45 at the time, could never negotiate life's curves. The investigating highway patrolman says Looney never hit his brakes. Of course not Joe Don braked for nobody or no thing. When Looney was found face up under a mesquite bush, he was wearing a helmet. It may have been the only time in his life that he was caught doing the right thing."

 
Steve Emtman, (DT, '92-'94) -- Vice President of the American Family Film Foundation and presently has his own foundation, The Steve Emtman Foundation in which he provides support for under privileged youth.

:thumbdown: The only thing "bust" about him was his knees. He was quite good when healthy.
 
Let me file this in my WGAS file. Done.
Would that be Web Graphics Artist Society or West Gloucestershire Art Society (UK) or Who Gives A Sweat(polite form, in which case your input was not needed), or Wood Green Animal Shelters (English charity)?
 
Ben Utt (G, '82-'89) Atlanta. Partner and national sales manager for an investment company. (Baltimore Sun, 5/01)

All time favorite lineman football name evah! :clap:

 
Former Colts linebacker (and Mr.T's cousin) Jeff Herrod is a floor supervisor in my department at DaimlerChrysler transmission plant.

 
Interesting to infer how NFL salaries have changed...many guys playing up through the '70s are doing blue collar wage earning work like selling medical equipment, electrician, or coaching at a high school...while guys in the late '90s own sport franchises, run investment companies, or hold executive management positions...

more likely something like Wants to Get it up the Ahrse Society. :porked: ......OK actually to be honest I don't give a flip about this info either. I only clicked on the link because I'm a Colts fan and was really bored. :bag: To each their own though. Back to emailing the PIT OL coach -
 
Mike Curtis (LB, '65-'75) Potomac, Maryland. Operating partner of a company that develops and sells apartment buildings. (Baltimore Sun, 5/01)
Should be in the Hall of Fame.A little more on "The Animal":

Video highlights of his pivotal pass interception in Super Bowl V have received plenty of television time over the years. So has the 1971 video of him whacking a fan who ran out on the field to steal a football.

While the Colts were waiting for the Miami Dolphins to come out of the huddle, a fan ran out on the field at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore and grabbed the ball. While his teammates stood there stunned, Curtis instinctively reacted with a crunching forearm block.

The fan spent a couple hours in jail and a couple hours in the hospital being treated for dizziness.

That player-fan confrontation was even brought up by sports commentators in the aftermath of the recent incident at the Detroit Pistons-Indiana Pacers basketball game, in which players charged into the stands and rowdy fans went on the court in Detroit.

"They mentioned that if Curtis would have been there it wouldn't have happened," he said with a laugh.

Cool. I believe the list I cut and pasted in somewhat out of date, so I like the input some have made to some of these players. Yes, it's May and I'm bored with draft stuff, so I felt like some enjoy perusing this kind of stuff. If not, that's ok too.
