A native of Jacksboro, Texas, Lester was not only a great football player at TCU. He earned nine varsity letters in all, also playing center on the Horned Frogs' basketball team and pitching for the baseball team.
It was football, though, where Lester made his mark. He was the first player in Southwest Conference history to be named consensus All-American twice, earning that honor in both 1934 and 1935. He is the only Horned Frog to be named a two time consensus All-America. He was a captain on the 1935 team, and along with Sammy Baugh led the Frogs to a 12-1 record and a Sugar Bowl victory over LSU. His successor at center for TCU was Ki Aldrich, who was himself a two-time All-American.
Lester was drafted by the Green Bay Packers and played for them for two seasons before retiring due to an injury. After football, Lester served in the U.S. Army Air Corps in World War II, before working for General Mills and being one of the founders of the Bluebonnet Bowl in Houston. He eventually retired to Temple, Texas, where he died in 1993 after being elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1988.

-
I only have 300MB free space.
-
And once I'm finished downloading this it'll be 200MB.
-
I'll need to start watching more movies so I can delete them.
-
Damn it stopped downloading because I don't even have 100MB free space on my computer.
-
I don't want to have to delete anymore stuff that I haven't seen.
-
43.9GB Is how much space my downloaded stuff is taking up...
-
And all my music is another 16GB
-
And I don't know what is taking up the rest of the space.
-
-
.....................................
-
I'm putting my music back onto the ipod....
-
I had to take it off because I had a load of stuff that I don't listen to anymore....
-
And rather than deleting it song by song I deleted it all then put it on album by album...
-
Once all my music is on it. I'll put Doctor Who onto it
-
Then I can go watch Supernatural...
-
-

-

-
Only 600 songs still to go onto the iPod...
-
Going to college on Wednesday is going to be fun...
-
.... Since that's why that Tropical Storm will have reached us.
-
There's already a lot of flooding here.
-
I really like where I live. Since I live on a hill.
-
It would be awesome if there was some flooding here. Because all the chavs go to the park at the bottom of the hill...
-
.... If it flooded down there they will all be so stupid that they wouldn't think to get out of the water....
-
... Then hopefully some of 'em would drown.
-
But if it wasn't for chavs then there would be nothing to lol at in December ....
-
.... When they all have their crazy xmas decorations in their garden.
-
The chavs here go mad with xmas decorations.
-
400 Songs to go. Then I'll need to wait on Doctor Who.
-
...................................

Huh well that's good.
-
Now I'm waiting on Doctor Who
-
I can't believe I waited an hour for the music to go onto the iPod and now I find out that it's all been removed because I have to put TV Shows onto it first.
-
So now I need to wait another hour. So I'm just going to go watch Supernatural while it puts the music onto it again.

with a VPS we will get our own ram, hard drive space, bandwidth, and cpu power
