Vince Lombardi

Do you know who Vince Lombardi was? If not,I'll tell you some things about him. He was born and raised in New York City. His father was from Italy and his mother was of Italian decent. He studied for priesthood, but then he transferred and won the golden gloves! He later went to Fordham University and was a member of the seven blocks of granite.
