Yes, the Herschel Walker who ran over people on his way to a Heisman Trophy at Georgia, signed with the USFL, was traded by the Cowboys to acquire a future franchise worth of players from the Vikings, competed in Olympic bobsledding and had a decent showing on The Celebrity Apprentice.

Now 47, one year older than Randy Couture, Walker has signed with Strikeforce, the company has confirmed.

Man I wish this were ten years ago.  Guy is going to come out like Larry Holmes against Mike Tyson.  Still though, I’m curious to see what this man is capable of in the ring.

Why at 47 though Herschel?  Come on buddy!  I mean I know you can kick my ass and all but really?  I can only assume the man has financial problems right now.

This should be interesting to say the least…or not.
