I always like the IT... IS.... GOOD calls by him on the PAT or the field goals.

became real familiar with that b/c of Morten Andersen's kicks in the early 90's.

RIP

A legend. Didn't like how his last game was a preseason game... Should have gotten a better send off instead of a pretty much empty dome. Could have been his choice though.

A New Orleans Icon that will be missed!

I knew him, he was a wonderful straight-up family man. He was on the ground floor at WDSU as well and in NOLA advertising. A really nice guy.



Godspeed old man.
