Happy 76th Birthday to Willie Lanier
Greatest AFL Middle Linebacker, and was right up there in skill and dominance with Butkus. Happy BD to the man they called "Contact."

Fun Fact: Wikipedia says according to a DNA analysis, Lanier descended, mainly, from Jola people of Guinea-Bissau.

He was the guy who first made me love football violence. And I mean that in a good way.

Born in the Halifax County town of Clover, Virginia. Willie Edward Lanier graduated in 1963 from Richmond's Maggie Walker High School as a star football player. He attended Morgan State University, in Baltimore, where he started as a walk-on, and became a two-time Small College All-American. In the 1967 draft, he was a second-round pick of the American Football League's Kansas City Chiefs. In 1968, Lanier became pro football’s first African American starting middle-linebacker, a position referred to as ‘the quarterback of the defense.’ In 1970 he helped spur the Chiefs to an upset win in Super Bowl IV.

Nicknamed "Contact" because of his aggressive tackling and “Honey Bear” because of his innovative ‘bear hug’ tackling style, Lanier was named to the league all-star teams each year between 1968 and 1975 and missed only one game during his last ten seasons. He received the NFL's Man of the Year Award in 1972 for his community volunteer work.

Willie should ALWAYS be mentioned among the most elite MLBs to ever play the game.

He often isn't ... and that's a stinking, dirty shame.

Plus, the punditry never mentions the fact that Willie wore the first mohawk helmet ever devised ... which was cool as hell.

Happy Birthday, Contact.

I’ve probably met him a dozen times over the years. Always as nice and gracious as he could be.

Yep, one if the best ever... Could always tell where Willie was because of the raised portion of his helmet. Looked intimidating as hell.

If anyone is bored see where Willie Lanier ranks in INTs for a MLB. Dude racked them up for his position.
