There was no other choice. You would have burned in effigy if you chose unwisely here.
Maybe without the effigy.
Will there ever be another man that plays in the Playoffs with a broken leg bone ever again?
Plus he's a Ram and a Gator so if anyone was going to pick differently it sure as hell wasn't me.

Any nominations for 84? I think I know who I'm going with, just curious if anyone knows.

"Shoot, the University of Florida was the only school that would give me a chance," Youngblood recalls. "I lived about a stone's throw away from FSU and they did not recruit me. We had a state championship team and some colleges were interested in other players we had, but not interested in me. Bill Parcells was an assistant coach at FSU and he said I couldn't play at the college level. I thought I'd wind up going to a junior college up in Georgia."

Youngblood was just recently voted the "Baddest" player of all time. His playing on a broken leg is legendary, but the article also mentioned that he played on it in the Pro-Bowl as well!
