Happy Birthday Lynn Swann!
Today is Lynn Swann’s birthday. Let’s imagine how he might spend his dream day. Early round of golf. Lunch at Wilshire Country Club (no autographs). Late round of golf. Offend USC fans with statement proclaiming he knows better than you. Ignore interview requests from media. Wait for phone call from former teammates wishing him happy birthday (crickets chirping). Move season tickets of more long-time fans. … Continue reading Happy Birthday Lynn Swann!

Palaie Gaoteote was supposed to be the middle linebacker but he replaced Houston on the weakside. That might make sense because he hasn’t played much and this will make his transition easier.
