Tough week.

I never knew Randall was his brother.

Damn. Sam Bam. As I first started watching the Pats, he was the name everyone knew.

Rest in peace, Sam.

Rest in peace, Sam.

I can still picture him jumping over the line to score. Players don't do it anymore.

Wow, 71 seems so young in this day and age. One of the greats in Pats history for sure.

Believe me, when you reach 71, it doesn't feel old. The problem is that once you get this old, you spend way too much time trying to stay healthy and not let the Reaper sneak up behind you.

Tough week.

I never knew Randall was his brother.

I too was not aware of that.

I'm surprised that some of you younger guys know of him, good for you.
He passed still holding the record here in NE.
RIP Sam
