Pretty sure this is who 4ever was referencing.

Ah yes well done 4ever
Including Ray Scott ...he of few words ...but perfect

What you'd see....

3rd down and 1 ...They expect Jim Taylor off tackle...Bart calls the play action ...drops ball to his hip...sets...half pumps...and boom what a pass....it floats down from 40 yards catching Carroll Dale in stride and just as he is breaking free from his coverage....he goes free in for the TD

What you heard....

Starr...Dale...(crowd roars)...touchdown

...Funny but I still remember everything about those moments more vividly than anything in the most recent Super Bowl.

Bart was the leader. Bart was class. Bart was a good man. Bart....RIP

vinnie saw something in bart that no one else did as a 17th round, 200th pick of the 1956 draft.  bart was the epitome of a leader thru his actions.  he lived his life consistently as a good man(co-founded rawhide boys ranch), husband, father and a football player.  he suffered one of the most devastating losses anyone one could ever experience-losing a child(bret).

Bart Starr was my first sports hero. He was an epitome of class as a football player and as a man.

His ilk is sadly too few and too far between.

Rest in peace Mr. Starr. You were a great example to us all.

Joe Louis and rocky marciano say hi. But yes by all accounts he seemed like an upstanding individual and the first football hero
