One of the good guys. But a holy terror on the field. May God bless and keep him.

Sad news. I thought he made a good character actor after football too.

Who do I call to send flowers....:biglaugh:

Seriously, he was one of a few who was able to trascend from sports to another career without coming off as a total stiff.
(think Terry Bradshaw: acting?:smash:)
He was also a memorable character on "Little House on the Prairie".
