Gridiron Diplomat
The following is a true story. At least it is the truth as far as this pilgrim knows it to be. This is an account of the personal experiences of a rogue linebacker (LB) from Ohio bearing football pads and know-how. He travels the world in an attempt to infect young, socialist-minded Soviet warriors behind the Iron Curtain with the positive virus of American Football in the 1980's and 90's. A relentless Baby Boomer, he continues his modern day odyssey through Latin America and Africa. Actually, starting in Red China, Tommy Football-seed, that's me, charges in literally like a bull in a China shop. He is often misunderstood for his pushiness. To the more control-minded Easterners, he could only be a government operative. Otherwise, no individual takes such initiative on his own.
