But in terms of my strength level, I felt pretty good; I felt that I fit in right away. <br>Unfortunately, the June Jones regime that drafted Brooks in 1996 was replaced when Dan Reeves took over, and Brooks was sent to NFL Europe. Brooks agent, Robert McManus, was reluctant to agree to this decision because Brooks would have to postpone learning Dan Reeves complicated offensive system. McManus says he told the Falcon s Personnel Director Harold Richardson,  As long as you give him an opportunity to learn the offensive system when he gets back from Europe, I will go along with this allocation. As a result, Brooks played for the Frankfurt Galaxy at left tackle, but was then traded to Rhein Fire to play right tackle. Rhein went all the way to the World Bowl in June, and Brooks was named to the first team All NFL Europe team at right tackle This was both good news and bad.<br>Because Rhein had gone to thT Swaˑ9ڹIx3RI+køŰc>Q%"ASqr!U.K԰sZgaI?'Ҵ[ö#7FsMl\5d39J :3z= e<5a.X+V=%EGozh6̈́d꾝( 0L qއ[Hoo6Ln J+\@ϵuK6#gRHL[<) p{z*EHİtrXَr]} zr'}+Y ̰x>||Nڳte*h֢[H[7;q銕o0ðZVsQ!CL0^=d2iStMXIm8w'Uo iqFa',=*ٴKq_7!4WavWt& sHW.~*W06lM3P2.OOZ%ȋfX~QI$~>V,pdb>QYDE's幢*nior I threw 190, which was just a remarkable throw  until you compared it to national records, says Dan.  It s funny, because I was up at a track meet in Las Vegas this fall and I met a college coach from Delaware. When we got to talking about the numbers that I thrw on Sunday, he sai I would have dominated his conference. I thought,  A 46-year-old man would have won his conference  that s amazing.  <br>Dan s athletic accomplishments and practical coaching wisdom eventually caught the attention of BFS President Dr. Greg Shepard. The first time Dan met Greg was in 1980 at theHill Air Force Base Powerlfting meet, where Dan was competing for the Utah State Powerlifting Team. Recalls Dan,  It was about two in the morning during the deadlift competition, and I was sitting around in the warm-up room when Greg came up to me and asked me what I was opening with. I said I was starting light at 573 pounds, just to get a mark, and I think it almost knocked Greg down. After that we kept bumping into each other at competitions, and then I started working out at the Upper Limit Gym when it opened up. That was a great place to work ot because the Utah Jazz trained there, and Greg and his BFS staff made certain they took their lifting seriously. One day when I was working out Greg asked me if I wanted to work at the gym, and I accepted. That started my relationship with BFS. <br>If there s one major struggle Dan has had as an athlete, it s with his bodyweight. In college it was as high as 272, which Dan says was pretty solid because he was lifting hard. Dan was able to lean down after college; he quit training from 1981 to 1987 to concentrate on his creer. When he got back into training he allowed his bodyweight to go up again, and by 1995 he acceped the fact that he was fat and had to do something about it. <br>To get lean, Dan went on a low-carb, high-protein diet. Dan s descripton of a good breakfast:  meat, eggs and other stuff. A bad breakfast:  not meat, eggs, and other stuff. In a few months he dropped 50 pounds.  It s funny, I got down to 206, and I found that I could throw the discus just as far as I did when I was heavier  and my injuries disappeared. <br><br>The State of the Sport<br><br>Although Dan says the US stil the weightoom. Coach Grady enthusiastically stated,  their improvement carried over to the playing field as we went 10-1 this year. We won the Vermont Division I league title and the Vermont Division I State Championship. We also placed 9 players on the 1st team Division I All-State and 2 more on the 2nd team. The ou
