RIP Dick Butkus

[78]

Maybe Gale Sayers should have joined the suit. Talk about one of the best RB's done in too soon due to knee problems. Ironic they were drafted at the same time.

I was at the Wrigley Field game in '68 in which Sayers wrecked his knee. It was my first NFL game. He was having a great year. Took a pitch left and was hit helmet-first in the knee by Kermit Alexander. The entire stadium went silent as Sayers was carried off the field.

I’m trying to shoehorn the Steelers in here somehow (Lambert maybe…)
Ah, I know…
Unitas was drafted by the Steelers and then traded to the Colts. Wtf…

LOL, and I was a Dolphin's fan.

My hero's weren't limited to a favorite team. They transcended uniforms.
