Aikman: Valley's best?
What's he doing here?
But unknown to many Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman, who played at UCLA and for the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL, is a Valley native.
Aikman was born in West Covina and was raised in Cerritos until his family moved back to their roots of Oklahoma when he was 12.
Most know the story from there. Aikman was an Oklahoma prep star, enrolled at Barry Switzer U, err, the University of Oklahoma, broke his leg his freshman season and transferred to UCLA.
He was then the No. 1 overall pick in the 1989 NFL draft by the Dallas Cowboys, who he led back to greatness. The West Covinaite is one of only four quarterbacks to win at least three Super Bowls and the first to win three in a four-year period.
Do you know who the others are to win at least three?
And who else won three in four years?
I'll take a shot steve and say the other QB's with 3 superbowls wins are Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, & Tom Brady. I will take a
guess and say the other to win 3 in 4 years is Bradshaw.
Very good Dan. You are right about the first part. But while Bradshaw won four in six years, he didn't win three in four years. Tom Brady is the other QB to do it.
