Sad news Gale Sayers and Road Warrior Animal RIP

Gale Sayers was imo, the most electric running back possibly ever. I was fortunate enough to see him perform in person and it was an event.

He was as elusive as Barry Sanders, graceful as Eric Dickerson with Marcus Allen smoothness and Bo Jackson, Herschel Walker speed. He did it in a era where today's training and technology were only a fantasy, the game was more viscous and God's given natural gifts were truly at the forefront. His humility and understanding of what was really important ( something we see very little of today relative to athletes ) should really serve as the model for today's athletic environment.

One can only imagine how entertaining he would have been been in today's game. Only his lack of Jim Brown durability keeps him for being considered the GOAT imo.
