Re: Steve Sabol, president of NFL Films, dies
This guy was a game changer. He was the Steve Jobs of sports, IMO. :rip:I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

RIP Mr Sabol, thanks for all the NFL highlight shows and documentaries."There ought to be a room in every house to swear in. It's dangerous to have to repress an emotion like that." - Mark Twain
