Description of Battle Royal

Protecting Uncle Joe

September 1969

On an overcast Sunday afternoon My 17 year NFL career started against Americas Team…The Dallas Cowboys.

The responsibility I had that day was to protect mi amigo , Joe Kapp…
On this day I would be across from All Pro Bob Lily!

I had a sleepless night , re playing all the prior weeks film …
He was no doubt the best D lineman in pro ball!
The sleepless night ended with the Pregame meal.

That day Bob was quick as a cat, strong as an ox and smart as a whip!
It seemed as though he knew where the ball was going before the ball was snapped !

We started the season with a win and went on to win the NFL Title…

What a start!
