BEARLY FRIENDS

This was posted by my FB friend Tom ...


I'm posting the meme because it reminds me of a story told about or by former Chicago Bear running back Walter Payton in the 1980s.

Payton was camping with friends/teammates in the woods, and slept with his sneakers on. He was asked why he slept with his shoes on. Payton replied that he was afraid of bears. They told him, "You can't outrun a bear." Payton countered, "I don't need to outrun the bear. I just need to outrun you."
