Ernie Davis Movie
This new movie about the first African American to win the Heisman, Ernie Davis (The Elmira Express), looks increcible. I went to Syracuse and am sad that they have now retired the famed #44 that Ernie Davis, Jim Brown, Floyd Litle, Rob Konrad, and many other incredible backs wore during their time at SU.
Here's hoping that SU gets a little momentum on the football field out of this movie being in theatres this year! Go Orange! http://www.moviefone.com/movie/the-express/29654/main It looks like an interesting story about not only football, but in looking at football as a microcosm of society in the late '50s and early '60s. Kind of like "Remember the Titan", but based on the story of an incredible athlete. |
