Everyone meet Darrell "Housh" Doucette. He's the 5'7 quarterback of the United States Flag Football Team. No, he never played college or professional football, but he did win the State Bowling Championship. And listen, I'm not here to knock Housh. If I've said it once, I've said it a million times: you throw on that USA jersey, that Red White & Blue uniform, and I'm cheering for you. But what I do have one slight, teensy little issue with is Housh thinking he's going to stand in the way of Joe Burrow, Tyreek Hill, and Christian McCaffery teaming up to play for the United States when Flag Football debuts in the Olympics in 2028.

Herbie J Pilato

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
