Rich Take On Sports

Show Notes:

Rich Spotlight: Bill Curry

Continues to focus on working out each day even after 5 shoulder surgeries through his career

Hated football and went out for football only because that’s how you got a date and was scared of football and wanted to quit

Had 2 goals in life at 12-years old:

Marry Carolyn Newton

Pitch for the NY Yankees

Fell in love with football while playing for Don Shula at the age of 25

Became to obsessive about football and it impacted his personal life

Every QB that he ever played with required the snap a different way

Selfishly enjoyed playing more than coaching but loved all of the players he coached and still hears from players today

Regrets not spending enough time with his family during his playing and coaching days

11 years with ESPN – 20 games per year and he and Carolyn have been involved with over 700 football games together

Didn’t like Lombardi as a player and regretted ever saying that and asked his forgiveness while Vince was on his death bed

Words of Wisdom from Bill Curry:

“Love God with all your mind, all your heart, all your strength, and all your soul.”

“Love your neighbor as yourself.”
