One of the greatest


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Football star turned actor Merlin Olsen, who was a key member of the Los Angeles Rams' defensive line nicknamed the "Fearsome Foursome," died at the age of 69 on Thursday after a battle with cancer.

Olsen died at a Los Angeles hospital, his alma matter, Utah State University, said in a statement on its website.

The sports star was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1982 after a career with the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League that spanned from 1962 to 1976.

During the 1960s, Olsen played defensive lineman with Deacon Jones, Rosey Grier and Lamar Lundy who collectively became known as the "Fearsome Foursome" for their ability to stop ball-carriers in their tracks and sack opposing quarterbacks.

Maybe Im just old but I remember his player days.  The fearsome Foursome where great.  They played when football was a real game. Open stadiums and they played in rain snow wind mud and real grass(astro turf wasnt used) and hits that would send a player into the next lifetime.
