RIP, the Golden Boy.....

Paul Horning of Green Bay Packer fame passed away, today.....I met him, once, at the baggage claim area in Las Vegas.....we talked, briefly, and he impressed me to be a really nice down-to-earth guy.

If someone/anyone asked me to name a professional football player.. I'd name Paul Horning.. (does that give you any idea how long it's been since I cared about professional sports? ) ;) Godspeed Paul.. Muddy.. I once rode 22 floors in an elevator with Buck Buchanan... I'm 5'6 - and probably weighed a buck and a half.... he's was bigger than that..;) and seemed to be a hell of a nice guy..

That reminds me of when I met George Foreman. We actually sat next to each other and chatted all through lunch, then he picked up my tab as we had almost the same birthdays! He was a big sob! I was 6' 2" and about 225lbs (in the mid-70's) and I remember he towered over me! I didn't realize he was that tall. A really nice guy.

Well, when I mentioned Foreman, it rang a bell and sounded familiar. I just did a search and dug up this old thread from over 5 years ago. I miss Cappy. :(
