So here’s the answer key:

Ben Nighthorse Campbell was on the Olympic judo team

Heismann winner Pete Dawkins ran for the Senate in NJ and lost

Bill Bradley, and Steve Largent were very good pro basketball and football players, respectively.

JC Watts was a great college player, and played in the CFL.

I actually was not thinking of Jack Kemp - how could I have forgotten him? - who was actually a pretty good pro quarterback, and who led the NFL players union (just as Reagan had led the screen actors guild....).

In reading Campbell’s wiki bio I realized that Sen Mullin (soon to be Senator) from Oklahom was a former pro MMA brawler. I didn’t know that before now....

Correction, Kemp led (I think) the AFL players union. Not the NFL.

More trivia: "Largent" is derived from the French "l'argent" (literally, "the money").

He was on the money with his catches, as well as a decent fiscal conservative.
