Reply to "John Martinkovic, 1927-2018"

Some of you may recall buying books in elementary school, typically through a program like the Scholastic Book Series
One such book I purchase was titled "Winners Never Quit, Quitters Never Win". It was full of 'inspirational' stories including the likes of Jim Hurtubise, Jerry Kramer, and Bart Starr.

Starr's story detailed the mess the Packers had at QB after he was drafted, including the last years Parilli was there (along with the immortal Joe Francis) .
Of course, he couldn't beat out either of those clowns, and some wondered if he ever would, but he rededicated himself to improving his skills, Lombardi was....well, Lombardi, and the rest is history.
