cthomer5000 · 02-13-2003, 09:58 AM

a bit more out on a limb now:

6. Barry Sanders, Emmit Smith

Marmel · 02-13-2003, 10:00 AM

6. Emmitt is correct. Barry is not.

On the NFLPA question, that one is a bit tricky. I think I recall that the NFLPA as simply a player representation mechanism was founded in the mid 50's, like 55 or 56. But as an actual union, it wasn't officially "unionized" until the late 60's - maybe 67-68, something like that.

cthomer5000 · 02-13-2003, 10:02 AM

I'm going to have to say Walter Payton then.

Draft Dodger · 02-13-2003, 10:06 AM

I want to say Jurgenson for #3.

for #6 I'll guess Sayers.

I'm sure both are wrong

I think my answer is 1956, if that's what you are referring to as the NFLPA. As a union, I think it's 1968, but I could be wrong. It's been 7 years since my sports law class.

Marmel · 02-13-2003, 10:16 AM

1956 is correct.

Craptacular · 02-13-2003, 10:44 AM

6. Jim Brown
