    I can remember a Pro Football Weekly publication from my teenage years back in the mid-90s that classified him as "King Kong in football pads.....when he feels like playing" (not verbatim, but that was the idea of the post).

    A lot of ex-athletes, especially black dudes, tend to have heart troubles. Huge bodies, genetic links to heart disease, then they stop playing and gain weight, never a good combo.
