Johnny Unitas

The Greatest Football Player Ever
What more can I say
These are his collage yearbooks
I built this cabinet in honor of him
As a child I was Johnny Unitas

Who can forget the great Johnny U. and those great Colts? -- Raymond Berry, Lenny Moore, and, of course, Alan 'The Horse' Ameche. Remember that epic plunge Ameche took to score the winning TD in O.T. in 1957 to wrest the title game, 23-17 from the Giants? (if memory serves me correctly)… What a thriller! Great poem, great memory, and great cabinet, Bobby! Best wishes, Gershon

As a child I was Peter Pan, and I shall never let go of Peter as you will never stop being Johnny.

oh this is cute!! Did you mean in the last line that you wanted to be just like this guy? or was he you??? I was thinking he was you but then I saw that the picture was autographed to Bobby from him. So I am confused!
