Your Hometown and the NFL.

[TTTBone]

The tragic passing of Elroy "Crazy Legs" Hirsch got me thinking. What notable NFL players came from your hometown?
Mine: Wausau, WI - population aprox. 36,000...
Elroy "Crazy Legs" Hirsch
Dave Krieg - Seahawks QB, still in top 15 all-time in a number of QB stats.
Jeff Dallenbach - Miami Dolphins O-lineman, he was a 250 lb. Sophomore, when I was a 120 lb. Freshman on the JV team. One of the reasons I realized, "this game is not meant for guys like me."

Not NFL but it's all I got.

Tom Brookens - used to play for the Detroit Tigers,nothing great,OK player,I guess.

Billy Owens - grew up in a nearby town,went to Syracuse,played for someone in the NBA,dunked on me and another dude on a local playground once.

I know I'm missing a couple, but these guys come to mind...

Mark Rypien - one of my sisters' friends mom (does that make sense?) is dating him. He's cool.

Jason Hanson - went to my high schools rival. Don't know much else about him, though.

John Stockton - former basketball player and future HoFer.

From Charlotte, NC...

Only guy I know of off-hand is Antawn Jamison, Tarheel phenom and NBA star. He attended the high school only 30 seconds away from my house. I played against his little bro in a bball game a couple weeks ago.

I thought he was born in Spokane. If not, he grew up here (went to Shadle Park HS).
