quote:

Campbell said that he made the decision after a preseason game when his feet were so sore that he had to crawl his way to the bathroom.

“And I said, ‘Oh, hell, I don’t like it no more,’ ” Campbell recalled.

grew up with members of his family

went to a family reunion while he was still playing

there were a lof of


"whos the white boy belong to" comments that day

Earl is a wonderful man, loving but not soft
imposing without being threatening.
and very funny, hanging out they make you part of the family and the laughter is infectious

I get emotional thinking what he meant to my childhood

Did you talk about Eastern NC BBQ vs Texas? Wonder if he's has B's or Skylight.

Earl Campbell over four seasons, starting with his senior year at Texas: Heisman, NFL MVP, NFL MVP, NFL MVP. Amazing.

Unfortunately, Bum Phillips ran him into the ground.
