RIP Gale Sayers
quote:
Former Bears running back Gale Sayers, the “Kansas Comet” whose dazzling moves and breakaway speed made him the most dangerous runner in football in the 1960s and earned him Hall of Fame honors despite playing in just 68 games because of injuries, died Wednesday at age 77. He had been diagnosed with dementia in 2012, his wife Ardythe announced in 2017.

The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced his death.

What a bummer. One of the good guys. To see grown men of a certain generation tear up, play "Brian's Song."

RIP.

An amazing player and man - sadly, who was disabled by the sport he loved so much.
