Note from Ted: In 2010, I wrote a

who spent time on six NFL practice squads but never played in a
regular season game. At that time, Mark's goal was to become a team
doctor in the NFL. His pursuit continues and Mark has added a side
interest . . . running! As he notes, there are still 300 pounds on
his 6-5 frame. No problem (smile). He recently competed in a 10-mile
trail run and a half-marathon is on deck. Click

Cool nugget:
In
Roxborough's
1949 yearbook, this short poem accompanied Jesse "Jess" Richardson's
profile . . . To be a professional football player is his aim.
And we're all sure this will bring him fame . . . He played DT
for 11 seasons, primarily for the Eagles, and appeared in a Pro
Bowl.
Also, he is said to be the last pro lineman whose helmet did not
have a facemask. Click

Thanks. . . **UPDATE: Carroll missed out on a chance to post what I
think would have been the earliest TD in city history. It had no
points in the first half. The North Catholic-Frankford Thanksgiving
game started at that time forever. In 1983, at 9:48, Frankford's
Blair Thomas (NFL) ran for a 72-yard TD on the first scrimmage play.
(There might have been earlier TDs on kickoffs, but I'm sure on this
one because I mentioned the time in the story.)**
