Let’s take a trip back to spring of 1996. This Generation X-er was about to enter the Golden Era of teenage years. It was a few weeks after the monumental NFL Draft that landed Miami Dolphins icon, Zach Thomas.
In addition to the recently named Hall-of-Fame Semi-Finalist (again), Miami’s draft class included Daryl Gardener, Stanley Pritchett, Shawn Wooden, Shane Burton and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
We can discuss who Thomas’ Hall-of-Fame classmates are in a few months when we all find out together. Book that.
I digress.
