Marv Levy Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I heard one of the Buffalo News Channels interviewed Football Coach Gene Tundo at Orchard Park High School a couple days ago, inquiring about a former player who was now in the Super Bowl. I don't know which team he played for (Indy or Bears) so I was hoping anybody caught that and could tell me who it was?! That would be pretty awesome if true! Thanks in advance- Marv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatPatPatSack Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Great story and all but the dude's a stiff. A poor man's Kelsay or Denny at best. He has a ring. And a pro football contract. And he is one of 53 or so champions of the world of NFL football. I'd say you would have to pretty cool to top that. Go ahead, let's hear your vitae. Brother...

SF Bills Fan Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I played lacrosse for Tundo in '88, '89 at OP. He was the best guy you could know. Our assistant was Tommy Gardner who was killed in a car crash not too many years after I left OP. It was a terrible tragedy. Dan Elvin was football coach at OP then. Tundo took over in the early 90's I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drnykterstein Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 No fans of the SHS Panthers on this board? Sigh, hey when I was there the girls Volleyball team was nationally famous for having an 18 year winning streak. They had sponsorship by nike and everything. And now one of our football players has a Superbowl ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
