You know you're getting old when you start losing the icons of your youth. First Cowboy QB I remember, Don Meredith passed away this weekend.
RIP #17

Just heard a funny story that summed him up:
Meredith picks up a bar tab for 6 or 7 of his teammates, Walt Garrison says, "thanks Don, but the tab is $250, that's a lot of money." Don says, " hell Walt, I figure I made $250. We had at least $500 worth of fun."

Duly noted, Matthew.
Turn out the lights, the party's over...

Do you think the great Keith Hernandez wore #17 in honor of Dandy Don when he went to the Mets?
