Sad News: Bill Walsh R.I.P.

Five people of different levels of fame all dying on the same day, two from the same cause. That's spooky.

The passing of Bill Walsh really hit me, which was strange because I was never a 49ers fan. But, as I thought about it, the way football is nowadays kind of all traces back to him. The innovations he brought to the game have been transfered throughout the league by his assistants and their assistants until they're just about everywhere you look.

There are few geniuses these days but Walsh was one of them. And I'll miss him for all he's done for a sport I love.
