Default Tony Dorsett

Went home from work to eat lunch as usual. Flipped on the TV and caught some the Behind the Glory story about Tony D. Good stuff. Lots of college highlights and good footage as a Cowboy.

He talked about the 1987 strike season. He crossed the picket line and played because his last contract was huge and he was in danger of losing the money. Money he says that was part of an annuity that is still paying off today. He showed teammates the contract and he said they encouraged him to cross and do what he needed to do. He feels bad especially considering that none of their strike demands were met at that time.
