Born on the same day Construction of the Golden Gate Bridge began in San Francisco Bay. His childhood name gave way to his football name that branded his football style as a fireball.

He played on a great team and was an important part of it averaging 5.3 yards a carry. His favorite play was the sweep left. He had tremendous football speed and ran the sweep in the class of the Walter Payton’s.

He played on a great team and was an important part of it averaging 5.3 yards a carry the year they won the Super Bowl. Some consider that team....
