Just Googled Larry Burton... he's 59 years old. Cee ----- Original Message ----- From: Cecilia To: gatortalk@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, September 29, 2010 2:50 PM Subject: Re: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Gatornews from the Palm Beach Post and Miami Herald courtesy of Junogator
It's not quite that extreme, I think. If Larry was a first round draft pick in 1975, he was probably at the end of his college career... so maybe 21 or 22? Trey is a freshman so he's probably only 18 or so, right? That would make his grandfather 56 or 57. So two generations in 38 or 39 years.

His grandfather, Larry Burton, was an Olympic sprinter, starred at Purdue and was a first-round pick by the New Orleans Saints in 1975. Two generations in 35 years? That's pretty tricky. -Zeb -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
