>>"seem to recall he did ballet"<<

Yep, Lynn Swann took ballet lessons as a child. He enjoyed it & claimed it helped make him a better athlete & wide receiver.

FWIW, I think Rice was clearly a better overall wide receiver than Swann. JR had more size & speed.... both had superior eye hand coordination. Perhaps Swann had better leaping/catching ability..... but JR was da man at wide receiver. No doubt about it.

....and John Stallworth had more moves than both of them put together. Stallworth turned more 5 yard passes into 70-80 touchdowns than anyone I ever saw play the game..... & he had to share the ball with Swann on a team that ran twice as often as they passed.
