Dandy Don passed

One of the best and most favorite Dallas Cowboy quarterbacks of old, Dandy Don Merideth passed yesterday of a brain hemorrhage. I loved him as a broadcaster on Monday Night Football as well, paired with the infamous Howard Cosell. Ah, the good old days.

Farewell, Don, and thanks for the memories...

Sorry to see another one go. He was a nice guy from what I saw of him. As well 72 is far too young...
