re: Tebow offered to play for Italian american football squad Milano "Seamen"

That's who I played for ... we were owned by Georgio Armani at the time and were limited as to the number of Americans who could play, five on each side of the ball.

It's actually good football. You'd be surprised at the level of talent there is in the club system in Italy ... and Italians are the best American football players in Europe IMHO, followed by the Germans then the Brits.

I'll say this, back in my day, when we were coached by Domenic Tesoriero ... we owned Europe, went undefeated my first year there and only lost one game my second year there. Met my first wife there. Good memories.

We had models around us all the time, lived in the same building with a lot of Armani's models.

lol ... just heard from Coach Tesoriero not long ago ironically. Crazy old man is taking selfies and sending them to all his old players just to prove how in-shape he is even today. The guy was a beast. We had some good ballplayers on our team, from Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, California. The linebacker who played beside me, his brother started for UCLA alongside Ken Norton's son. I mean we had some ballplayers.

But Tebow would be a gimmick over there and he wouldn't like how wicked physical the game is played there - almost on a dirty level. It's combat.
