Derrick was not only a big star player but he had class also. He represented the University of Alabama with the dignity expected of a Bear Bryant coached man. I know. RTR!

Wow, this was powerful.  Watch the repeat if you get a chance.

The guy that followed Cornelius Bennet and ultimately surpassed him in the record books grew up without a father because his dad died in Vietnam in operation "Linebacker 2".

It was a good show.  I particularly liked how his biggest NFL game followed a fly-over by the same type of bomber his dad flew in.
