I had the privilege to meet him at my football banquet when he gave a speech when I was in maybe 7th or 8th grade.  I played linebacker and he actually took the time to talk to me for a minute on how to best play the position.  Really cool dude.

I just can't get over he has been gone nearly 20 years.

"Illinois Grad" is kind of like "Completion Certificate"...

.....says the UW-Milwaukee graduate (i.e. "What, that's a four-year school...who knew?"

Teasing..... one of Mrs. Blair Kiel's favorite work associates was an Illini grad who worked his way through the PGA Tour to become Colorado's AD....

Back in the day, I used to read Ray`s Packer report, that was the only way to keep up with the Packers down here in Teaxs.

Joe Buck and Troy Aikmen on the call.

Man, what I would give to have Raji, Woodson, Jenkins, Collins and Matthew's and Tramon in their prime again. Thinking about it, though, Clark and Daniel's can give GB what Raji and Jenkins did, and Alexander will likely develop into an even better corner than Tramon.  We're really hurting at OLB and safety,  though.

Viks passed 2x.

Maybe we should have a "On This Day IN Viking History" thread.  

Every day in Vikings history is the same.

This day in Vikings history: They suck.

History isn't taught in viking's schools because it's about the past, you know.   The vikings' students aren't allowed to talk about the past and want to make it so no one can talk about the past when the subject is about vikings stuff.
