Our 'Footballer of the Week'
for this week
goes to:
The Big Black Man, 6-0, 190, who was the
first football player in NFL history to do a
dance after scoring a touchdown on a day
in 1969, as a University of Houston player
against the Florida Gators, and the dance
consisted of several seconds of high
stepping, but many in the crowd and players
on opposing teams didn't like it, and thought
it was unnecessary showboating, however he
loved to do it because, the league stopped
him from spiking the ball after a TD, and
he felt like he had to do some sort of
celebration, and later Elmo would be the
first to do it in the NFL as a member of
the Kansas City Chiefs against the Redskins
in 1973, plus Elmo holds numerous
records at the University of Houston that
still stand today,
and way so much more...
