Archie Manning/Joey Ramone... the similarities:
Both inspired young men to emulate them.
Both were innovative and not truly appreciated until later in life.
Both were born on May 19th.
Bear Bryant/Keith Richards... the similarities:
Both thrilled young men, often while directing the troops in stadiums.
Both excelled at their craft until on in old age.
Both experienced youthful stress in Fordyce, Arkansas.

I was reading an article about Roman gladiators in the 2001 swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated, and it got me to wondering: if Ole Miss changed their name from the Rebels to the Gladiators, inevitably they would be referred to as "Glads." So, when the "Glads" scored a touchdown or sacked a quarterback or such, would the band play "Glad All Over" by the Dave Clark Five?
"Glad All Over" (Dave Clark Five live on Ready, Steady, Go!)

The Dave Clark 5 were so underappreciated.

That Grace Jones vid is demented.
Glad All Over- one of my favorite British Invasion singles. Total ear candy.
