New York Athletic Club

Remember, for years, you couldn't get... could not get a wide receiver into the picture so malley is going to be one of those rare wide receivers along like davante smith won it flat out six years ago but in terms of having two players invite it rarely happens i mean sc had it with leinert and bush 2005. those guys both made it to new york uh liner wanted an old four bush won it the following year but there's not that many times because remember what the old theory was they were going to split votes Right.

So in terms of Miami players, more than one being invited to the New York Athletic Club.

Or like in the mix, like throughout the year.

I can only think of 2002.

The gala, yeah.

The gala fundraiser for the Irish Arts Centre in the New York Athletics Club.

Do you remember that?

Yeah, yeah.

It's just one of the great memories of his life.

But the reason I'm saying all of that is they were competing against the New York Athletic Club.

The New York Athletic Club at the time accepted only white Protestants.

So there was another club called the Pioneer Club, which took everybody who was not accepted to the New York Athletic Club, which was basically blacks and Jews, is really what that came down to.

And his best friend, Johnny Johnson, was coming around the back stretch, might have been the quarter mile, coming on the final straightaway.

And a runner from the New York Athletic Club is a few paces behind him.

And Johnny Johnson overhears that runner's coach say, catch that He overheard this.

So what did he say to himself? He said, this is when he ain't gonna catch him.

You were witnessing her last hairdo.

So you did in New York Athletic Club.

You were there.

So that night, she says, Brian, she says, that's it.
