Bottom line is Scott was a beast. Shula and him should re-unite before it's too late.

You can make the Pro Bowl but not be an All-Pro.

According to an article on the Sun-Sentinel, Jake Scott does live in Hawaii.

HANALEI, Hawaii -- In the last state. On the last island. Down the last road. At the last speck of a no-stoplight town before the United States drops into the Pacific Ocean.

This is where sports' reigning hermit possibly lives, protected by friends, geography and a six-foot hedge. Public records say he owns this unassuming, two-story home. But no family member or former teammate will confirm it. No telephone number is available. And there's only a decades-old football photo to measure the man in the front yard against.

All-Pros carry more weight than Pro Bowls. Being selected as an All-Pro is a top honor for any player, while Pro Bowls are merely popularity contests.

Yes Kitty, but don't forget which status paid more.......back in those days there were no multi-gazillion dollar contracts....unlike now.
