Jerry Fishman

Jerry Fishman (born c. 1943〔(A bird in the hand is worth... ), ''Wisconsin State Journal'', June 5, 2007.〕) is an American former football player. He played college football for the Maryland Terrapins of the University of Maryland and was selected by the Baltimore Colts in the 1965 NFL Draft. Fishman gained notoriety when he twice gave an obscene gesture during the 1964 Maryland–Navy game, which directly resulted in a 40-year hiatus of the series.
==Biography==
Fishman attended Norwalk High School in Norwalk, Connecticut,〔(All-Time All-State football: 1960 ), ''New Haven Register'', October 10, 2008.〕 where he played football and baseball.〔(Norwalk High's Hines named All-Area football MVP ), ''The Hour'' (Norwalk, Conn.), December 19, 2008.〕〔(Looking Back: 50 years ago ), ''The Hour'' online, August 18, 2007.〕 In 1960, he became the then second all-time single-game rusher in the state of Connecticut when he rushed for 342 yards against Danbury.〔(2004 Connecticut High School Football Record Book ), p. 4, 2004.〕
Fishman attended the University of Maryland where he played football primarily as a linebacker. He also served as a tailback, and in 1963 was the team's leading rusher with 480 yards on 116 carries.〔(Year-By-Year Results ), ''2007 Terrapin Football Record Book'', University of Maryland, p. 17–22, 2007, retrieved February 4, 2009.〕 In 1964, he was named to the All-Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) first team as a guard.〔(ACC Year-by-Year ) (PDF), ''2007 Atlantic Coast Conference Media Guide'', 2007.〕
Fishman gained notoriety and is most known for his actions in the 1964 game against the Naval Academy, an intense in-state rival. Rough play marked the game, and Fishman responded on two occasions with an extended middle-finger to taunts from the stands, some of which Maryland receiver Darryl Hill described as anti-Semitic.〔Kevin Cowherd, (Much more to this story Getting past the finger incident ), ''The Baltimore Sun'', September 1, 2010.〕 Afterward, with respect to his rough play, Navy head coach Wayne Hardin called Fishman, "a disgrace to the game."〔 Maryland head coach Tom Nugent conceded that Fishman may have been "a little wild-eyed," but added, "I can't chastise him publicly. I didn't see him do anything deliberate."〔(Football's Week ), ''Sports Illustrated'', November 16, 1964.〕 Navy officials cited Fishman's use of the middle finger as the main reason for their refusal to renew the series for 40 years.〔Rick Snider, (Ill will lingers at Navy, Maryland; Rivalry to restart in Crab Bowl ), ''The Washington Times'', page 1, August 29, 2005.〕 Several times, University of Maryland officials asked Fishman to apologize for the gesture, but he refused and said, "What for? It's a game. It's a silly game. It's football, it's not a diplomatic blunder."〔(Saluting a Rivalry—Politely ), ''The Washington Post'', September 3, 2005.〕
Fishman was the only Jew on the team at the time, and became close friends with Darryl Hill after he transferred from Navy.〔(Barriers made to be broken Hill ), ''The Palm Beach Post'', October 25, 2006.〕 Hill was the first black player on any ACC football team. Fishman said, "He being the only black and me being the only Jew, we used to call ourselves 'The Onlys.'"〔(Another home run for HBO ), ''The Washington Times'', December 14, 2008.〕 Shortly after Hill's arrival, Fishman cut a deal with Hill, offering to help him survive his redshirt season in exchange for tutoring in economics.〔(Ground Breakers ), ''Sports Illustrated'', November 7, 2005.〕 Fishman was fiercely protective of his friend, Hill, who was the subject of mistreatment from the fans and opposing players. Against South Carolina, which had threatened a boycott of the game because of Hill's participation, Maryland led 13–0 at halftime. As the team walked to the locker room, a fan poured a drink onto Hill. Fishman responded by hitting the man with his helmet.〔Richard Lapchick, (Hill opened door to ACC ), ESPN, February 15, 2007.〕 At Wake Forest, Hill was knocked unconscious by a late hit, and Fishman applied the oxygen mask when the medics refused.〔David Ginsburg, (First black player in ACC paved way for equality ), Associated Press Sports, MassLive.com, December 13, 2008.〕
Fishman was selected in the 14th round (196th overall) of the 1965 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Colts.〔(1965 NFL Draft: Baltimore Colts ), Pro Football Reference, retrieved February 17, 2009.〕 The Colts waived him during the preseason camp, and in 1965, he instead played for the Hartford Charter Oaks in the Continental Football League. In June 1966, he was signed by the Washington Redskins,〔(Redskins sign Jerry Fishman ), ''Ocala Star-Banner'', June 16, 1966.〕 but did not make the roster.〔(All-Time Roster ), Washington Redskins, retrieved June 11, 2009.〕 Fishman is now retired from personal injury law〔(40 years, one finger later, Maryland and Navy to meet ), ''The Gazette'', September 1, 2005.〕 and currently resides in Boca Raton, Florida.〔(Old rivalry revisited ), ''The Diamondback'', August 31, 2005.〕
