George S. Connor JR

Proud to celebrate my father's 50th anniversary of his induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I was twelve years old at the time of his induction and was more caught up in the pomp and circumstance of the moment. For me the highlight of my father's induction was getting to travel to and back from Canton, OH in a GMC motor home (aka, "urban assault vehicle") that was featured in the movie "Stripes". Over the year's however I have had the privilege of attending multiple induction weekends and have gained a deep appreciation of my father's accomplishment and have witnessed the special bond the members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame share.

Who will win the "Connor Cup" trophy this year for most NCAA men's basketball tournament bracket points? Last year's champion (yours truly) being awarded the Connor Cup much to the chagrin of my son Alan.
