One hell of a RB. Left the game after 9 years or he'd probably own a lot more records.

As great of a football player as he was, he was probably a better man after he left the game.
He did so much to straighten out people with problems it is unreal.

A better man after he left the game? I’d suggest reading the timeline of his abusive behavior spanning all of his adult life.

He was a pretty good actor...for not even studying acting I presume....
The man had an AURA around him...
He could be tough, nice, bad, or anything inbetween..he was talented on and off the field...

I always wondered about that "kidnapping" RAP against him from some broad or housekeeper?? It was a very strange story...
Was he in "THE DIRTY DOZEN" ??? I have to check on that...

He was in the dirty dozen !!!
Awesome great classic movie..
John Cassavetes was in it too!!
Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, many many great stars...

I think Jim brown ran across the roof of the chateau and threw ten?twelve ?handgranades down air shafts into rooms filled with nazis doused in petrol fuel???
