Walsh Tribute

Pete Carroll on the death of former San Francisco 49ers coach Bill Walsh.
``Everyone who loves football will miss one of the game's great icons. He was an extraordinary mentor to so many coaches who are still in the game today. We all owe him greatly for his kindness and gifts.
"From the time I was a young college coach up to the present day, I've always been a great admirer of Bill and I've felt lucky to be a friend of his. All my thoughts are with his family. We will miss him dearly."

Pete's got it right, yet again. Used to live in the Bay Area in early 80s and he was the most wonderful person, and of course a superb coach. Great having season 49er tickets then as well.
Now glad to be back in Trojan territory!
Fight On!
