Day, all right. Just so you know, I always feel a little personal pressure on Fridays to give you some extra really good fun facts. I want you going into the weekend thinking about these things. Shar with friends at parties. Yeah, I figure, you know, there's more interaction with people. I want you to look smart in front of your buddies. In nineteen seventy, hal good morning, that was yesterday. There was exactly one NFL player that weighed over three hundred pounds.
There was one in nineteen seventy. I don't know who it was. By twenty fourteen, there were over four hundred players in the NFL who weighed over three hundred pounds. It's closer to five hundred players now that are three hundred pounds plus in the NFL. That's over twenty percent of the league weighs three hundred pounds. They're like in shape, like mad shape. Yeah, but three hundred pounds. I mean, I don't know how much you remember, but William the
Refrigerator Perry was a freak. The eighty four Bears and William the Refrigerator Perry was a three hundred pound guy. He's alignman that they put in there as a running back. Ditka came up with that stunt and it worked. The most famous thing about that is William the Refrigerator Perry has a Super Bowl touchdown and Walter Payton does not.
That's wild.
He didn't put the ball in Walter Payton's hands. He put it in his freak show's hand and didn't expect that. I'm not a Mike Ditka guy.

But the fact that Walter Payton doesn't have a Super Bowl touchdown.
We're expecting it to go to Walter Payton. I know.
Bob Marley gave a songwriting credit on the song No Woman, No Cry to a man named Vincent Ford. What did Vincent Ford have to do with the song?

One that I have heard was Ed Sheeran. He was like a street musician. He was out busking and there was some gal with him and they used to kind of riff on this song. He turned it into be a huge hit. He put her down as a songwriter and he took care of her forever on that one on that one song, ya hey yeah.
He was on the streets with her and he put her down as a song as a songwriter. Finally, by age seventy, your body has shed one hundred and five pounds of skin.
