Brian Bosworth
Brian Bosworth (born March 9, 1965 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) was a linebacker for the NCAA Oklahoma Sooners (1984–1986) and the NFL Seattle Seahawks (1987–1989). A college standout and winner of the first two Butkus Awards as the nation's top college linebacker, well-known for his brash personality and inventive haircuts, he was forced to retire after just three comparatively lackluster years in the NFL due to a shoulder injury.
In July 2004 he was named to the "Top 25 Biggest Sports Flops of the Last 25 Years" by ESPN.
He wrote a book with Sport Illustrated's Rick Reilly in 1991 entitled The Boz: Confessions of a Modern Anti-Hero (ISBN 042513041X).
He starred in the 1991 action film Stone Cold and has had an on-again, off-again film career since. In 1997, he starred in an action show called "Lawless " that was cancelled after one episode.
