Good Show

Tonight my brother-in-law, Mark, my hubby, and I watched “The Express.” All three of us gave it two thumbs up. In this flick Rob Brown stars as Ernie Davis, who on the field was the first African-American to win the Heisman Trophy. Off the field he fought for racial equality and taught his coach (Dennis Quaid) at Syracuse University how to stand up to racism. Here’s the line that made us chuckle with knowing laughter: “Down in Texas, football is a religion.” Sad, but true.
