Pat Brady
FameRank: 6

"Pat Brady" was best known as cowboy Roy Rogers' "comical sidekick." Pat's full name was Robert Ellsworth Patrick Aloysious O'Brady and this was shortened to "Bob Brady," although it is not known when the "O'" was dropped from "O'Brady."

Born in Toledo, Ohio/Toledo, Ohio, Pat Brady first set foot on-stage at the age of four, in a road-show production of Alice Hegan Rice/Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch. From that moment he was hooked on showbiz for life. While appearing as a bassist in California in 1935, Pat struck up a friendship with a young country & western singer named Leonard Slye, a member of the popular Sons of the Pioneers. When Len Slye was elevated to screen stardom as Roy Rogers, he recommended Brady as his replacement in "The Sons". However, as Bob Nolan, an original member of The Sons, was referred to as "Bob," and The Sons thought one "Bob" was enough, "Bob Brady" became "Pat Brady" from then on.

I imagine DeGrate will be a little rusty.

It looks like a typical Arkansas High football team. They've got great athletes, but they're not as big as I've seen them in the past. They've got eleven guys on the field that can run, and so do we.

Over the next six months we will decide on the type of research we will do in the California effort.

That is not a huge deal for us at all.

Obviously we want to win, but our goal is to play better, eliminate mistakes and stay healthy.

In my opinion we'll have an advantage over anyone we play in special teams.
