Rolf Benirschke-Maverick

Rolf Benirschke place kicker. Ulcerative colitis nearly ended his career. He made a comeback. Rolf defied the odds. He holds the Chargers record for the most points scored. Rolf brought soccer-style kicking to professional football. I thank wikipedia.org online encyclopedia for information I obtained to write this poem. Dodoitsu with tanka attached
