Rivers, Bogan are among Ebony inductees

One of the conclusions Jamie Rivers has drawn since playing in the NFL for the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Jets is that no one cares or remembers.

In the context of a general observation about life, Rivers is right.

In the context of his hometown, he’s wrong.

Proof is the former South High product’s inclusion with 11 others who are slated for induction in the Ebony Lifeline All-Sports Hall of Fame on Oct. 22 at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Banquet Hall.

By virtue of his selection, Rivers isn’t forgotten for his contributions through the years.

He joins a former South High classmate and teammate, Al Bogan, along with eight others for the event, which is sponsored by Ebony Lifeline Support Group.
