I knew of Grantland Rice's write up of course, but now I know "the rest of the story!"

I am the granddaughter of Sleepy Jim Crowley and have not been invited to attend any festivities of the 100th anniversary of the iconic game. Notre Dame should be ashamed1

Is it true that the average weight of the Four Horsemen was only 168 lbs? I don't think they would last very long in the NCAA or in the NFL today. But I'm sure it would be fun to watch them try.

I'm not sure, but that sounds about right!
