NOTES:

Mark Murphy was always an underrated gem who got the appreciation of his peers and fans in Green Bay- but very little outside of it. He however did cash in on most of the major brands before he retired, and all my set needs are represented here. Mark has alopecia and doesn’t have any hair on his body. My friends used to call him ‘Mr. Clean’. Mark Murphy is not to be confused with the football executive by the same name.
