DLS350 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 Sad news. Grew up watching his teams play and win some Super Bowls. Also just means I’ve gotten old too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderRam Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 I grew up with Shula coaching my favorite team. I knew nothing else up til I was 24 years old. I never met the man, yet he had an impact on my life. He doesn’t have the most SB wins, and didn’t find a way to build a strong enough team during Marino’s era — but the man still managed the only perfect season in the 100 year history of the league and beat one of the two modern day teams that seriously threatened that record. He also won the most games of any HC in the history of the league. 33 seasons in total, and only 2 losing seasons. Think about that. And oh yeah, he was a damned good player himself. RIP, Coach Shula. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
