		Nevers was a multi-sport star at Stanford, but it was football where he made his mark.
		Although Nevers sat out the '28 football season to recover from injuries and assist Warner at Stanford, he returned with a vengeance in 1929.

	Member - Pro Football Hall of Fame
		Of all the records in the history of the National Football League, the one that has survived the longest was set on November 28, 1929, when Chicago Cardinals fullback Ernie Nevers, scored every one of his team’s points (six touchdowns and four extra point conversions) in a 40-6 rout of the Chicago Bears.
		After he finished his Stanford career, Nevers signed pro basketball and baseball contracts and, in fact was destined to throw two homerun pitches to Babe Ruth in his historic 60-home run season in 1927.
		Injuries forced Ernie to sit out the entire 1928 season, but he returned as the do-everything man for the Cardinals in 1929.

		As always when the Bears and Cardinals met in their crosstown duel during the late 1920s and early 1930s, Red Grange, one of the most famed sportsmen of his or any era, was the name that sold tickets.
		But it was Nevers who provided the memories for the 7,000 assembled fans, and earned a place in history that continues to stand.

	History Channel: Best running back ever ...
		Stanford, Ernie and "Pop" lost that day (27-10), but Rockne was so impressed by that one performance he would later (when Nevers was playing as a pro with the Chicago Cardinals) take his Notre Dame players, at his own expense, to Chicago just to watch Ernie play.
		Ernie's pitching wasn't all that great (4.64 ERA), and his.219 batting average (Bo Jackson managed.250 as an outfielder and DH!) were the main reasons he only played three years of pro-baseball.
		Ernie Nevers is probably the only guy who will ever score ALL of his team's points in wins against other pro-football teams.

		When Nevers trotted off the field, Rockne turned to his players and said "That, gentlemen, is how to play tough football." For Ernie Nevers, it was the only way.
