i was walkin to the kitchen for some golden grahams when i accidentally stepped into an alternate dimension and soon i was abducted by some aliens from space who kinda looked like jamie farr. they sucked out my internal organs and they took some polaroids and said i was a damn good sport and as a way of saying thank you, they offered to transport me back to any point in history that i would care to go. so i said send me back to last thursday night so i can pay my phone bill on time, just then the floating disembodied head of colonel sanders started yelling "everything you know is wrong"

I was just about to mail a letter to my evil twin when I got a nasty papercut, and, well, to make a long story short, it got infected and I died. So now I'm up in heaven with St. Peter by the pearly gates, and it's obvious he doesn't like the Nehru jacket that I'm wearing, he tells me that they've got a dress code. Well, he lets me into heaven anyway but I get the room next to the noisy ice machine for all eternity and every day he runs by screaming "everything you know is wrong".

as i walk through the valley where i harvest my grain, i take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain. but that's just perfect for an amish like me, you know i shun fancy things like electricity. at four thirty in the morning i'm milking cows, jebediah feeds the chickens and jacob plows (fool). and i've been milking and plowing so long that even ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone. i'm a man of the land, i'm into discipline, got a bible in my hand and a beard on my chin. but if i finish all of my chores, and you finish thine, then tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699!

when suddenly the guy behind me in the backseat popped right up and put his hands across my eyes. i guessed is it uncle frank or cousin louie is it bob or joe or walter could it be bill or jim or ed or bernie or steve? i probably would have kept on guessing but about that time we crashed into the truck. and as i lay bleeding there on the asphalt suddenly i recognized the face of my hibachi dealer, who takes off his prosthetic lips and tells me, "everything you know is wrong"

Oooo outposted, and a pic won't work Rob I need a detailed description of who he is!

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 12/4/2004, 4:19 pm

Mel Farr was born in Beaumont, Texas, brother of defensive back Miller Farr. He graduated from Hebert High School in 1963, where he lettered in football, basketball, baseball, and track. He was named All-State in football and track and All-District in basketball.

Farr received a scholarship to UCLA, where he became one of the all-time greats of college football. Although a broken wrist cut short his sophomore season, he was named All-American his two remaining seasons. He made 6 touchdowns his junior year, on carries ranging from 21 to 58 yards. His combined yardage gained his junior and senior years was 1,630 yards. His best collegiate performance was against California in 1965: during that game he had 12 carries for 155 yards and touchdowns from 45 and 21 yards, and he caught three passes for 60 yards. The tailback was consensus All-America, and in 1988 he was inducted into the UCLA Sports Hall of Fame.

Mel was the number-one draft pick of the Detroit Lions in 1967. After rushing for 860 yards with a 4.2 yard per carry average and leading the Lions' receivers with 39 receptions for 317 yards and 6 touchdowns, Farr was named not only NFL Rookie of the Year, but Most Valuable Offensive Player.

Although he missed half of the 1968 season with knee surgery, Farr was again named Most Valuable Offensive Player and was named to the Pro-Bowl that year. The following year he was named Lions Co-Captain, roaring back from surgery with his best performance ever in a game against the Vikings. On November 12, 1969, Farr racked up 197 yards rushing and two touchdowns although the game ended in a frustrating 14-14 tie.

Farr was again named to the Pro-Bowl in 1971 and ranks among the great all-time Lions scorers with 36 career touchdowns. He played for the Lions through the 1973 season (when he became teammates with his brother, Miller). He retired at the end of that season with extensive injuries.

Farr, who completed his college degree and was schooled in the Ford dealer development program during his off seasons from the Lions, now owns Mel Farr Automotive Group and Mel Farr Enterprises in Michigan. A respected businessman and civic leader, Farr was honored for Outstanding Achievements in Business by President Carter in 1978. He was also appointed by the NFL Commissioner in 1990 to the NFL Players Advisory Board, on which he served for two years.

And yes, that only took me a minute to remember (from my vast knowledge of Mel Farr) and type. :nod:

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 12/4/2004, 4:36 pm

Oh okay, but it's wrong. He was appointed to the NFL players advisory board in 1991.

And you didn't know who he was, so you're not my hero. Especially for your NFL mistake. That's low man...

Oh! Oh! I know this one! Mel Farr's a football player :nod:

Way to read my* biography on him.

*mine by virtue of having copied, pasted and posted it

Actually no... he's not... he was... but that's not why everyone knows him.

happening fish · Post by **happening fish** » 12/4/2004, 5:19 pm

Actually I already knew that :nod:
