| |
Richie Anderson was drafted in the 6th round of the 1993 NFL draft by the New York Jets. Richie spent 10 productive seasons in a Jet uniform before signing with the Dallas Cowboys and being reunited with head coach Bill Parcells after the 2002 season. Richie Anderson is one of the NFL's most skilled receivers coming out of the backfield. He caught 69 passes in his first season in Dallas, leading the team, and has averaged 60 receptions in the past 4 seasons. Richie's blocking skills and ability to make plays out of the backfield have provided the Cowboys with a quality 3rd down back, a player the Cowboys haven't had since the likes of Preston Pearson! Richie is very versatile, he can play running back, full back, tight end, wide receiver, he runs down kicks on special teams, can could probably take a snap or two from center if need be. A consummate team player, Richie makes the Cowboys star shine brighter just be being on the team!

No Ordinary Joe: The Biography of Joe Paterno
Certainly one of the best-known coaches in college football, Paterno became an assistant at Penn State in 1950 and head coach in 1966. And he has stayed there ever since, despite offers from both colleges and professional teams. Through the years he has compiled a record of 298-77-3, but is probably more respected because of his insistence that the aim of college is primarily a college education and only secondarily a headline on the sports page, so he and his staff drive their players as hard for academic excellence as for gridiron success. Paterno no longer uses the term much, but after a couple of years as head coach he began to preach the gospel of the Grand Experiment, adding to his reputation as a friend of the intellectuals (he's a Brown graduate himself). It's difficult for an author to avoid writing a hagiography about Paterno, but O'Brien (Hesburgh), a history professor at the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley, tries, although he finds few warts. The only objection is the structure of the book, which interrupted the history of the team for four chapters of analysis and details about the man and his family and then returns to the main subject in the closing chapter. It's as if O'Brien were afraid the material in that excursus would not hold reader interest. |
