Western PA is certainly a hotbed of NFL quarterbacks and linebackers. A
couple more quarterbacks that come to mind are Dan Marino, who grew up
on Oakland Ave. in Pittsburgh (very close to the site of the Pittsburgh
Vintage Grand Prix and British Car Day in Schenley Park) and also George
Blanda from Youngwood between New Stanton and Greensburg, a bit east of
Pittsburgh.
See, I did manage to get some LBC content in there:-)
