He still remains one of my favorite players, and hope he is recognized as one of the best to play the game.

He is a nice guy from a class family who could play with the best...injuries crippled him, lesser guys would have retired but he kept struggling and finally got back...but obviously not at the same level. I loved his game and his attitude, he was a great talent but will probably be shortchanged by history!

Seconded. He is a guy that could have had a team built around him. He could have definitely developed the younger guys around him. A leader and gentleman.
