(Miami, Florida) Â The roster of stars on the AutographedToYou.com web site continues to grow by leaps and bounds! In the past month Olympic legend Bruce Jenner, Pro Football Hall of Famer Deacon Jones and former Miami Dolphins star running back Mercury Morris were among the celebrities who came on board. Jenner captivated the entire globe when he set a new world record in winning the Decathlon gold medal at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal. That earned him the title of ÂWorldÂs Greatest AthleteÂ. Jones is equally well known after five All-Pro seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. He finished his career among the all-time leaders in quarterback sacks. Mercury Morris helped lead the 1972 Miami Dolphins to the only unbeaten season in pro football history, a perfect 17-0. Lineman Howard Kindig who helped block for Morris on that legendary Dolphins team is now MercuryÂs ATY teammate. Another football great with a home in the Hall of Fame, former Chicago Bears defensive lineman Stan Jones has also joined AutographedToYou.com. Jones played in seven straight Pro Bowls from 1956-1962. He is also recognized as the first pro football player to use weight training to build strength that made him almost unstoppable on the field. ATY also welcomes basketball superstar Spencer Haywood. After leading the U.S. to the basketball gold medal at the 1968 Olympic games, Haywood turned pro and promptly became the Rookie of the Year and the ABAÂs Most Valuable Player with the Denver Rockets. He then moved on to the NBA where he made the All-Star team four times with the Seattle Supersonics. | |
