He would drive down our street on his way to Yankee Stadium. And, we always knew when he was approaching because he drove a 2-seater 1953 Nash Metropolitan.
He would stop and talk with us. In 1950, when he was awarded AL MVP, we gave him a box of homemade cannolis (his favorite dessert).

As you well know, Drew Pearson was an amazing wide receiver.

I was an avid Redskins fan (John Riggins was my guy) during the time when Joe Theismann was their quarterback (1974-1985).

Fond memories of those years.
