"Modern Family" star Ed O'Neill was nearly a part of the Steelers dynasty of the 1970's. At least he got to meet his idol from those teams...40 years later at Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello's wedding.
how the f*** is he underrated a-hole? He's a living legend that had 2 long lasting tv series. M-W-C absolutely ruled American television for 11 years. Al Bundy is the most famous character ever.
I met Franco in Hilton Head, SC in about 1992. I was shocked that he was such a soft-spoken, yet articulate man. He graciously signed an autograph for me to give to my dad, who was a big fan of his.
Yes Franco is a great man by all accounts. He spoke up for Joe Paterno when the insanity set in at Penn State. It cost Franco business but he turned out to be right in the end. I will always admire Franco.
Franco was my favorite RB as a kid, a Steelers fan while growing up in the Midwest. The guy was a brute on the field, like trying to drag down a horse mid-stride. Always liked his humble demeanor. And while Franco, like the rest of us, can't live forever - The Immaculate Reception will.
Franco was a Stud! Not Yards like O.J., or Walter, or Earl Campbell. But, he kind of was part of a stall of Backs. You had Franco, Rocky Bleir, Sidney Thornton, Frenchy Fuqua, Preston Pearson, etc. Like Bradshaw, Franco did enough to get 4 rings. All those All-pro players, would love to have Franco and Terry’s rings, over the Yards.
Of course harris is a Fan, because 1966, he scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba "Spare Tire" Dixon.
Franco came to my store for some publicity stunt, don't know if it was an endorsement, or something else. I only know he was smack in the middle of Cleveland, and Cincinnati, so the only turnout were Steeler fans. I realized Ohio had a whole lot of Steeler fans. lol!
Loved the 70,s Steelers, Pat's sucked back then, Now cant stand Pittsburgh and had 20 years of DARTH HOODIE, Belichick's a riot ... pretty good coach too
