I went to High School in Georgia and I didn't go college. Started playing with the West Allis Racers in the early 1970's under AFA Hall of Famer Jordan Kopac, while working at the Oscar Meyer meat packing plant. I was all league both years. - Then moved on to play for the Norfolk Neptunes. I was once an all-star and won a ring.
- The NFL then called me the Los Angeles and to the Oakland Raiders, where I helped the Raiders win a Super Bowl.
- I played in a pro bowl and even sold beer "Taste great!" "Less Filling"
