didn't realize Jerry was so much younger then Jack, good trivia for sure, I read once that Jerry hounded Muggsy George Halas for the GM job, which Michael McCasky also wanted, and as soon as he could fired Jerry so he could have the job, which he floundered for a decade.NCF wrote: ↑06 Jul 2022 12:01Read his bio.

Tagliabue headed up the Europe league back in the late 80's, that one was pretty easy, and we know that Bratz was GM for the Mandarich draft, and I doubt the DEtroit Lions listened very much to anything he had to say, so thats a stumper, as is who connected to the Packers helped the Bears win the 1985 SB, maybe I should know the answers to these, maybe the answer is obvious, but I'am drawing a blank on the last 2 parts.

didn't realize that he went to Detroit from there, both Jack and Jerry where keen thinking football people, could spot talent, there was another brother that lived in GB for years after Jack died, not sure whatever happened to him
Wiki doesn't say much about his early years, so I'll go digging, stuff like this interest me.
