The NFL lost one of it's heroes today. Brandt passed today at 91.
I loved listening to Brandt on Sirius/XM especially during draft season. He literally knew each player's high school, what sports he played, mom's name, favorite team, and the best restaurant in their hometown.
He was an encyclopedia of football history, and he helped form the NFL. He was also involved in today's NFL.
RIP Gill. Better yet, come back soon! I know you don't want to miss any seasons.
