The greatest football player I’d ever seen in my lifetime. May he R.I.P.

He was in the same high school class as my father, Manhasset High School, 1953. (Ted Bessell of "That Girl!" fame was also in the same class). Everyone knew he was destined for greatness and he proved that.

I'm not a sports guy but I loved the blaxploitation movies that he made in the 70's.

Was a fan of his as a player with the Browns and as an actor in some great late 60s -70s movies. Mostly for The Dirty Dozen one of my favorite films. A film i saw in the theater five times on it's initial release . It helped that my older sister worked in the theater. RIP

Aside from the Dirty Dozen, Jim made a film that I really liked called Tick...Tick...Tick... as well as The Grasshopper with Jacqueline Bissett.

 

[Dick]

Arguably his best performance was in DARK OF THE SUN (1967) with Rod Taylor and Jacqueline Bisset. Pretty nuanced, actually. Yes, football players can sometimes act, too!

 

[Winston T. Boogie]

Jim's going to check on Richard again...

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

One of the GOATs, for sure.

 

[Keith Cobby]

R.I.P. Jim, thanks for Ice Station Zebra, one of the great theatrical experiences of my life.
