Did you know that Dave McDonald turned down a football offer to sign with the New York Yankees? McDonald's rookie card, pictured above, mentions that on the back, but does not include that it might have been with the advice of his father, Les McDonald, a tight end with the Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, and Philadelphia Eagles (1937-1940 | NFL.com).
