RIP Lenny

Post by jhawks99 »

Passed away today. I grew up watching him play and remember the Superbowl against the Vikes. Listened to him on the radio for years.

RIP Lenny.

Yeah, just saw that. Too bad. He just retired from broadcasting 4-5 years ago, still looked great. I was too young to see him play, but I've watched plenty of videos over the years. The classic pic of him smoking a cig during halftime at SuperBowl IV or V is a classic.

My brother and I would watch every game with the teevee sound down and Kevin Harlan and Lenny on 101 the fox.

Smart QB. Great color announcer. No homer either. He would call out bad players. I am grateful the team won another SB while he was here to enjoy it.

I put a bid on the framed and autographed pic of Len smoking a cigarette at Super Bowl halftime.
It was a silent auction, I bid 5k.

Man, I wanted that fucker

I think this one was different. It was in a badass frame.

Also, it was a charity event.

There is a photoshop of Mahomes doing that too which is a nice generational companion shot.
