And Bryce is like "y'all worried I can't take hits when I'm three inches taller and have a few pounds on the best RB in league history".

To be fair, nobody ever really hit him either

lol he is in his 60's. Honestly I don't know how any of those dudes can walk anymore with the concrete...er I mean turf they played on


I will say he is such a good dude, and with the events he puts together and the people he pulls for those events he is respected. That dang smile is infectious

Why is Tebow the only one not wearing his jersey, and on top of that he’s wearing all white for some reason. Strange guy

He's ashamed of Napier and the Gators.

Looks like Tebow was probably wearing a shirt that would have looked odd in the photo so they had him go with undershirt instead. Guess he missed the memo about wearing jersey.

Look how small Barry Sanders is next to him. I know Rogers is a little older but that's a huge difference for two dudes who played the same position.

George was an Earl Campbell build. A run you over or by you type. He was a big boy, and didnt care to be as shifty as sanders.

George Rogers was taller than Earl and he was kind of like the "John the Baptist" of the big tall unstoppable RBs that we were getting ready to see. On his heels came Herschel, Bo and Marcus Dupree. But if you include the 5'11" Campbell... there were five of those guys in a decade. Now there is maybe one guy like those guys every decade.

The unfortunate reality is that runningbacks have been so devalued in the NFL that a lot of the biggest and most athletic guys don't want to play runningback now. They play strong safety or something because there is more value there. Unfortunate--I love RB centered football.

Age of the folks in this picture.

Billy Sims - 67
George Rogers - 64
Barry Sanders - 55
Matt Leinart - 40
Tim Tebow - 35
Baker Mayfield - 28
Bryce Young - 21

I don't recognize Billy without the 'fro.

I just golfed with him in May.

There's a rule when golfing with Boo. Bring extra golf balls and never ever lend him your good ones. Have a pouch of seconds just for him, but don't tell'im they're recovered pond balls.

You're never going-to get them back. They're all going in the water, or woods, or down the street somewhere or in someone's yard ... but you're not getting them back and you won't mind because you'll be so busy laughing your belly will hurt.

and what do we have to do to get that hookup?

I got a ball guy, paid $40 for 160 balls (nikes). Id gladly lose a few to play with any of those legends

Sanders is standing the furthest back, which in this picture, makes him look shorter than he actually is.

George Rogers was one of my all time favorite Saints. It is a shame Bum Phillips ran the shite out of him and ground up up his knees, tho he still had a couple decent seasons with the skins
