Rest in Peace, Steve

I am greatly saddened by the news today of the death of my hero, Steve Sabol, the President of NFL Films. In an earlier blog (Wednesday, March 9, 2011) I recounted how one of Sabol's movies, NFL Football Follies, had a pronounced effect on my young daughter's health, one scary night more than two decades ago. We will miss you, Steve. You left this life far, far too early.

Ode to Robert Meachem

Where have you gone, oh, Robert Meachem?

A free agent, the Saints can’t keep him.

To San Diego, way out West;

I’ll miss you, but you’re still the best!
