Today I found out that Denzel Washington was apparently a HS football stud RB. His son is a rookie for the St. Louis Rams too.
Anyone else?

The day is mine, Trebek! I'll take "the rapists" for 200.
That's "threapists," Mr. Connery, not "the rapists!"
William Peterson (Gill Grissom on CSI) went to Idaho State on a football scholarship. I believe he was a strong safety.

not a guy but Gwen stefani lead singer for no dout was a high school swimmer and swam in college for a while. Now you can see what she is so hot.
charlie pride, his son curtis is or was a baseball player.
i think the greatest hex was to be named pete rose jr. man he tired are to be a ball player he just did not have the skills. same with kerry earnhart. His old man and his brother have the skills to drive the car adn he is just a touch behind.
