Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on August 30, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Shaun Alexander! May your day be filled with more joy than defenders you juked on your way to the end zone. From dominating defenses as a Seattle Seahawk and earning NFL MVP honors in 2005, you've always known how to celebrate—in style and often in the opponent's end zone.

Even though you're retired from breaking tackles, we hope this birthday brings back memories sweeter than that record-breaking season when touchdowns seemed easier for you than blowing out candles. Here's wishing you another year of happiness that's even greater than all those unforgettable runs combined—minus any unnecessary helmet hair!
