Fame, however, did not stick to Bulldog Turner because the positions he played rarely made headlines. Bulldog played centre and linebacker, while the recognition, glory, and money went to those who scored touchdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLike Pudge Heffelfinger, Fats Henry, Ox Emerson, George Trafton, Bruiser Kinard, Adolph Shultz, or Mel Hein, Bulldog Turner is a ghostly character from football's leather helmet days. Still, no man played his positions better than Bulldog Turner. He was the ideal combination of size and speed, and every coach's dream: a lineman who could block like a bulldozer, run like a halfback, and catch like a receiver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDespite his talents, Bulldog never made much money playing football, and what he did earn slipped through his fingers like sand. When he retired, his iconic nickname faded from memory.
