Swann's been a long time supporter of Bush. It just seems like news because the media won't mention it.

Indeed. Unfortunately, Franco Harris is supporting the dark side.

In 1976 Lynn Swann came to Saudi Arabia (with Ray Mansfield) to visit our school. I was about10yrs old. He thru a football to me and I dropped it. Never forget that.

Hall of Fame wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers and TV commentator. Endorsement could help Bush in Pennsylvania.

I'm assuming it's the hall of fame wide receiver from the Pittsburgh Steelers.
IOW, just some football player who was semi famous.

An NFL Hall of Famer. His mother wanted a daughter but had a son. She named him Lynn anyway. She made him take ballet. He took that expertise to the NFL before anyone did aerobic, yoga etc and brought a lot of challenging maneuvers to the game -- nobody could jump over a linebacker better than he could.

He was a USC Trojan who in 1972 was on the greatest college football team of all time, BEFORE he was a Steeler!

I can tell you are not a football fan. He played for the Pittsburgh Steelers doing their SuperBowl heydey, and is known for the "immaculate reception. A great, agile, graceful receiver, and is in the Football Hall of Fame.

I think he's also the chair or co-chair of the President's Council on Physical Fitness.
