Alternate Roles for Well Known People.

TO HELP PEOPLE NOT MAKE ANY MORE CONTRADICTIONS, HERE ARE SEVERAL FACTS ACCORDING TO THIS TIMELINE. ((According to peoples post so far.))



1: USSR survives till present day.
2: CSA survives till present day.
3: Cuban Communist Revolution does not take place.
4: German Empire survived, with some Nazi ideals.
5: No 9-11-2001 (due to no terrorist Osama).
6: Both USA and USSR land on moon in joint mission.

The Confederacy has already been mentioned as surviving, hence they'd be in the CSA, not the USA.

Kentucky was a border state, not part of the CSA, and so Col. Sanders would still be a US citizen. But Long is definitely in the CSA.

Ryan Leaf Hall Of Fame quarterback for the San Diego Chargers(half of this is true just not the Hall Of Fame part)

Anyone who ever saw Leaf actually play would debate the quarterback part as hopelessly ASB (sorry; diehard Chargers fan who remembers getting burned...)

Gerald Ford: first Heisman Trophy winner (1935) and center for the Chicago Bears (1936-40) prior to WWII. Would serve as a naval officer during WWII and attempt to return to pro football postwar but never regained his top form. Eventually became coach of the great Detroit Lions championship dynasty in the 1950's and color commentator for NBC's Monday Night Football program in the 1970's. (only minor changes from OTL; Ford was one of the dominant college players of his time and very easily could have gone pro)
