This makes the AFCCG a little sadder now.

You know Gun was watching and hoping he'd see us win it all.

Damn, three of his starters from the '98 defense are on the other side with him(DT, Wayne Simmons, and Chester McGlockton)

Good thing Elway is going to hell, he wouldn't get a pass off in heaven.

Yeah, and he probably wanted to straight up murder Sutton and everybody on the defense, too.

Agreed, it's really how young a person is that is looking at it.

People around us die all the time, our time is coming but many of good men and women have have left this earth way too early.

I might add, RIP Mrs.ROYC75, it was just 1 year ago last month, age 60.

Way Too young!

I keep myself at a cool 35 years old mentally. Makes a difference, IMO.

Gannon is not Raider scum.

I remember.

James Hasty...

RIP Gunnie.

RIP Gunnie.

Hames Jasty. Now there's a guy. Loved him. Lived in the same town home complex off 119th and Metcalf back then. Swam with his kids a few times, met and talked to his wife quite a bit. Said hi to him a few times at the community mailbox. Treated him like just some dude and he seemed to appreciate that.

Same year I met Neil Smith, when his leg was ****ed. He invited me and my lover (F) over to this table filled with Lemon Drops. He was very cordial, cool, and down to earth. And all the chicks wanted him.

That was a great, great era.

Yeah he is. That's where he had the most success of his career.

If he got into the HOF, he'd go in as a Raider.

On hearing the news Jon Baker rent his garment.

Chief Northman 05-13-2019 10:18 PM

This will sound insensitive, but I wonder if Marty Schottenheimer knows/remembers Gunther?
