	The Trajectory of Doug Flutie - The Boston Globe
		Laurie Flutie, who has been watching him play ever since she met him back in the 10th grade at Natick High School, was at that Chargers' home opener, having a relaxing afternoon in the team's luxury suite, until her husband ran onto the field.
		Flutie was the league's biggest star, playing for Donald Trump's New Jersey Generals, but when the USFL folded after just one season, he reluctantly accepted a backup role in the NFL, moving on to Chicago.
		But Flutie has never been one to be daunted by heroic benchmarks, partly because there have always been plenty of naysayers driving him to prove that Miami was not a fluke, the high point of a career that he never would reach again ("At least there's a moment that I'll be remembered by," he says).
