When I was a kid, my friend's Dad ran a Beer Distributorship in Glendale. His Dad was buddies with Merlin Olsen, so he hired him in the off season to work there.

Professional Football players didn't make the big bucks back in the 60’s.

My friend's Dad played College Football and he was a big guy just like Merlin. They used to play catch using Beer Kegs. Can't remember if those Kegs were empty or full.

Close, never heard of Roger Brown. It was Rosie Grier rounding out the four.

I believe that Detroit Lions defense was called the “Silver Rush.”
