Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Clarence "Ace" Parker died Wednesday. He was 101 years old.
He starred for the Brooklyn Dodgers from 1937-41 and won the NFL's MVP in 1940. He returned to the NFL in 1945 with the Boston Yanks and played one more season in 1946 with the New York Yankees of the rival All-America Football Conference after serving the World War 2.
He was the only one in the Hall of Fame to be over 100 years old.
looks like he lived a full life
