My Take
Burgess Owens fascinates me purely for the range of his life. A University of Miami man who played safety in the NFL and won Super Bowl XV with the Raiders, he then became a business executive and later a U.S. congressman for Utah. That is a refusal to be defined by any single title. Born in 1951 in Columbus, Ohio, he seems to carry a gridiron competitor's instinct into politics. Whatever one makes of his positions, the nerve to keep changing arenas instead of resting on past wins is real, and I genuinely respect that restlessness.
