Apparently the GM got mad at him for not using certain players, most likely their terrible 2nd round TE Ben Sinnott, and demanded he shift their offensive scheme (IE, run the Petzing stuff that everyone is running). Kliff said no.
wasn't he the guy that was one of the features on Hard Knocks? If so, seemed like a good dude and great teammate.
Money goes fast when you live in LA brother.
True! My grandparents owned a nice little house in Nowalk, CA that they paid very little for back in the day. A no-frills, small 3-bedroom, 1 bath house with a detached garage. When they died it went for a lot. A lot. At least 10x original worth, probably closer to 50x, and at least 10x more than what it would go for in Pittsburgh.
Haha I worked in Norwalk for a few years. Slightly ghetto area. But houses in Compton can go for $800k so...
David Blough is a really great dude. As a Purdue fan for most of my life (my H.S. was 2 blocks away from Ross-Ade Stadium and Mackey Arena; my late father was a Purdue Professor Emeritus), I've followed him closely, and even though I knew he wasn't quite an NFL-caliber QB, you could tell he was going to succeed in some capacity.
Imagine paying $800k for a crap hole in Compton.
folks got our little 2 bdrm place for 16k....my brother and his wife live in a cookie cutter copy five houses down.
Wow! That must be a change. Or it must just be a different part of town. I used to hang out there on trips as a kid, and it was white picket fence land. Not in town, obviously.
Naw Norwalk is kind of a gangster town. Not like Compton or Paramount, but damn close.
As I haven't been there since...crickey, probably 1988! I'll bow to your judgment.
It's like 75% Latino now. Not that's a bad thing, but that does mean you have a generally poorer demographic and poorer generally means higher crime.
We lived there for a year before moving to AZ
When was that? Was it anywhere near Goller Ave?
