It can be confirmed that Duggan played for the Toronto Argonauts for a short

I remember an interview a few years ago that Duggan did with Mean Gene
Okerlund in the Whiff about his football playing days. He indicated
that he had played for SMU in the SWC (Sure We Cheat!) conference, then
played for the Atlanta Falcons. "Of course, I had to take a pay cut."

Gonna have to ding you on this one. White never took the field for a pro game.
He was cut before he got that far. And yes, he would have been a Ram.

Leon White played his college football at the University of Colorado at
Boulder; where he still makes his residence (WCW ring announcers simply say
"From the Rocky Mountains"). He never played for the Donkeys. This subject
comes up every so often; I believe someone once posted that he was drafted
by the L.A. Rams and either didn't stick or was there a year or so before he
went out of the league; with injuries I believe. In that same thread a while
back, I thought someone posted that Duggan played for the St. Louis Cardinals.

With all due respect to Gary Will and his list, I believe this is correct.
I have an NFL book from 1972 and it lists Manny Fernandez as a defensive
tackle, age 27, in his 6th season; from West Texas State University. I
also seem to remember that WCW (or was it long enough ago to be Georgia
Championship Wrestling) made mention infrequently that he was a former NFL
player with the Dolphins. He sure looked like the same guy that played with
Miami. I'll dig that book out and doublecheck the above personal info, but
for the number of times I've looked at it over the years, I'm positive that
info is right.

Since wrestler Manny Fernandez would have been about 14 at the
time, this one should be pretty easy to figure out. Don Shula
was a great coach, but even he couldn't win two Super Bowls with
junior high players. :-)

I have heard that Redskins Coach/legend George Allen wanted to bring Andre

when there was an interview with White done on a WCW show. He made it a point
to show off his Super Bowl ring from being with the Rams during the Super Bowl.
And he did actually play some too, though he definately wasn't a starter.

Don't know about that, but I'm pretty sure he started at the CFL's now
defunct Montreal Alouettes. He started at 18 years old, making him the
youngest something or other.

Definitely yes. Trainer was Kim Wood of the Bengals.

Andre did get a tryout with the Redskins; I remember seeing a newspaper
photo of Andre at the Redskins camp sometime in the early to mid-70s. But
I suspect it was a publicity stunt and not a serious tryout.

Nope. Zeus is "Tiny" Lister. A movie star who usually gets type-cast as
a prison inmate. He's been in a couple of pretty major flicks. Not sure
of his football playing past, but don't think it involves the NFL, and I
know he's not a current football player.
