This is a picture of Mike when he played football for the Montoursville High School team. I did know what position he played for the Warriors, but I have forgotten. Doris, Shelley, Carissa -- help!

Great pic! thumbsup.gif I know for sure he was a placekicker (he set several records as a kicker), and I believe he played wide receiver as well.

He was a cornerback. His coach said Mike used to love to run across the field and nail somebody! I thought that was so freakin' funny for a guy who now won't throw a baseball at hitters.

Yeah - "Chicken Legs" kicked a 60 yd FG during a tryout at Penn State. laugh.gif

Ah...cornerback is the third position! I recall reading somewhere that Mike played three positions for the football team (I assume not all in the same season), but I couldn't recall the 3rd position.

Geez...just think about those chicken legs (which surely looked even more like chicken legs when he was a teenager) in tight football pants! scream.gif lmao.gif

At the first MMFC luncheon I ever attended, his football coach was sitting at our table. When Mike got to our table to pose for photos, he pointed to his coach and said, "Don't believe a word this guy says!" He must have known the guy was telling us stories about his high school days.

Of course, you use the word "tight" loosely here. laugh.gif
