I was in Cleveland in the early '60's when Frank Ryan and Jimmy Brown
were playing for the championship Cleveland Browns and watched on TV.
Off season Frank Ryan was going to school and got a PhD in math and
after playing ended up as a math prof at CWRU.  He was well paid at the
time as a player but not like today and needed that second career.
