Earl Christy donates Golden Football, message to HdG high school

The business card reads: Earl Christy - Mr. Inspiration, Super Bowl III Champion.

Former New York Jet and Harford County native Earl Christy was just that Tuesday night inside the Havre de Grace High School gymnasium, where he presented the school and the community of Havre de Grace with a Golden Football as part of the National Football League's High School Honor Roll.

Christy had no reservations about giving the ball to Havre de Grace.

"No, there was no question about it because I have good ties with Havre de Grace High School over here and plus, like I said, I did my student teaching and I felt good about it, because through the Hall of Fame, I wasn't able to come home at that time because I had conflicting schedules because I travel around the world and I speak," Christy said.
