Leonard Marshall. Played at Franklin Sr. High - went on to LSU, then Super Bowl Champ with the Giants. I think he was the one who killed Joe Montana.

But then again, we also have Ernie "Big Cat" Ladd, who was a former Pro Wrestler.

Mark or Chris Carrier?

Eunice has a pretty good number for a smaller place.

Ville Platte. . . umm. Danny Ardoin? Greg Lafleur?

Mamou . . . Barry Manuel, I guess.

Ian Wright, who scored 381 goals in his professional soccer career, including 185 for Arsenal, was born about 2 miles away from where I grew up.
