I will be the first to admit that the history of Football is not my best subject but if you can guess who this Hall of Famer football pro is, well then it must be your cup of tea! Who had 9,435 combined net yards, 4,956 yards rushing and 336 points scored according to the Pro Football Hall of Fame?
If you guessed 1965 Chicago Bears Running Back, Gale Sayers, you are correct! Last weekend, the Gossip Genies were able to attend ‘An Evening With The Stars’ presented by The Gale Sayers Center.
At the event, we heard stories from Willie Davis, Richard Dent, Paul Warfield, Anthony Munoz and of course Gale Sayers. Michael Wilbon of ESPN was our Moderator for the evening. There was a silent and live auction benefiting The Gale Sayers Center. Those in attendance helped raise money for the center which is committed to the educational development and mentoring of Chicago students.
If you have never been to a live auction, you will want to watch this- [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU-XOl2vzJk&w=420&h=315]
