My father was drafted by the Lions in 1937, he went into the CCC’s instead, wise move on his part.

Perhaps. But he missed out on being a part of the Lions Super Bowl trophy case.

LOL!!! He died in 1960 a few years before the Super Bowl. I did have a cousin that was drafted by the Reds in 1967 but he went into the Marine Corps instead. Now that was a missed opportunity.
