My Take
What draws me to Larry Csonka is that he embodies a kind of football that has almost vanished. A 191 cm fullback who simply ran through people during Miami's dynasty years, he was never about finesse, and the Hall of Fame recognized exactly that. I find his second act even more telling: a man who took that much physical punishment then made a living as a motivational speaker and actor. Words tend to carry more weight when they come from someone who has been hit that hard. Coming out of small-town Stow, Ohio, he reads to me as the genuine self-made article, and I respect that.
