Rabbi Shlomo Einhorn: “At my shul in Manhattan, I had two-time Super Bowl champ, former 49er John Frank. He was the first one there in my daf yomi shiur. He was there before I got there. He said, ‘Coach Jimmy Johnson always said, if you’re not ten minutes early, you’re late.'”
I used to cover the San Francisco 49ers for KAHI/KHYL radio from 1985 to 1987, attending three of their summer camps at Sierra College and some of their games at Candlestick Park. I remember Frank as very white in his approach to football. He was quiet. He worked hard. He was a good roommate. He wasn’t flashy.
