    Anybody have any great OJ Brigance photos?

    I recently showed our 7th grade boys a video about him and they were very inspired. One boy asked if we could put a photo of OJ up in the room, I thought it was a great idea, however when I go to google images all I get are very small photos of him (300x200).

    I would love one photo of him in his playing days and another more recent photo of him. Greatly appreciate your help!

    Maybe everyone knows this, but I just learned that you can actually search for large photos in Google image search. You click on "images", then click "large", and it finds big pictures. I found one of OJ this way.

    I bet the Ravens would hook you up with a playing-days photo if you explained your story.

    Good thought, any idea who the appropriate contact person would be?

    If I were you, I'd email the any of the lowest five people on the totem pole here. Team historian or public relations specialist would probably be your best bet.

    Exciting Update!

    Not only will the Ravens send us some pictures, but OJ himself will be coming to our classroom to speak! I'll try to post some pics as long as OJ's cool with it.

    OJ is the most inspirational human being I've ever met.

    I had a feeling this might happen (if OJ was up to it health-wise).
