    Yep. Kalsu. Started as a guard as a rookie and then went to Vietnam. There are apparently was a former Browns player from the early 1950s who also died in Vietnam, but had been in the Army for almost 15 years when he was KIA.

    Del City High School also is the alma mater of two-time Olympic champion wrestler and college coach John Smith, who I recently learned is the uncle of Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto.

    Last NFL player to wear the single-bar facemask in a game?

    Last non-specialist to wear the "two-bar" facemask in a game?

    Matt Bahr and Joe Theismann, respectively?
    And if not Matt Bahr, I'll guess Gary Anderson for the single-bar.

    One bar isn't a bahr or a theismann (though Joe was the last non-specialist to wear it). Last one bar was worn in the NFL in 2007 by someone who also played in both the CFL and the United Football League.

    This former National League MVP and two-time World Series champion -- one in each league -- never played in an All-Star Game.

    Who are the three MLB players to have at least 15 home runs and one stolen base in each of the first 19 seasons of their career?
