I recently picked up a book about pro football printed in the mid 1970s, More Than A Game. I was interested in it because it collected a bunch of essays from sportswriters if that era but was happily surprised to find a feature done in association with Marvel Comics depicting various players at one of the publisher's famed heroes. And there was Alabama's own Lee Roy Jordan, then a player for the Dallas Cowboys, depicted as that Star-Spangled Avenger, Captain America.

Nuff said, indeed.
