Me and my old QB may make it tonight if I can get my car unstuck from the mud this afternoon. May try the Farmer's Market - let me know, meet me there and I'll buy you dinner! You can meet the first non-Lee County Football player to be News Press Player of the Year (Harold "Boo Boo" Weaver; QB / MLB, 1971).
SW FL is still scratching it's palm tree head as to how Ed Perez won it the year before in 1970 from a 2-8 Green Wave team while just up the Trail, the Tarpons 10-2 were a penalty short of the State Title game. We had one of the leading rushes in the state that year, and a guy who the FHSAA named one of the Top 100 players in Florida's History - who went to 3 Super Bowls with the Cowboys - only Rookie starter in X.
