Big Bears fan from Connecticut who started rooting for them as a child when they drafted Sayers. He was probably the greatest pure runner I've ever seen.

For those of you who love "Brian's Song," check out Sayers' autobiography, "I Am Third," on which the movie was based. The title comes from Sayers personal motto: "The Lord is my first; my family is second; and I am third."

Truly a role model and a class act! Rest in Peace, O Kansas Comet!

Yes, I read his autobiography years ago when it first was published. It was one of the best football books I have ever read. Highly recommend.
