Whoa... i didnt know you started that foundation Phil, cant believe that slipped by me through the years, way to go dude, i appreciate that about you.
I've said my peace several times over the years about Joe and i guess its time to say it again... he was the first celebrity death to deeply affect me, i was in an honest to God funk for a week.
It wasnt just losing my favorite Chief, the guy who actually made me a Chiefs fan, tearing me away from Dorsett and Payton, a massive accomplishment... but even as a young boy, the way he died got to me... he had went in to save boys my age.
His death made me grow up a bit, start to ponder some of the deeper issues of life... thats the best compliment i can think of.
