Played H.S football and wrestled in the late 60's. Anybody else wear leather shoulder pads and leather hip pads that you had to buckle up in the front? Got hit so hard by a pulling guard one time that my helmet spun on my head and my nose was sticking out my ear hole.

I thought that the football and wrestling workouts wear tough. I weighed 205 and was 6'4" playing MLB and wrestled heavy weight. Then I went to Nam, still was 6'4" but came back 165 pounds, ouch!
