Finally got around to watching it this past weekend, and It was one of the top three episodes I ever saw. It may have been the drinks I had, but I'm not ashamed to say that I teared up. Knowing that the greatest Cardinal ever to put on the uniform might not get a ring coupled with getting a glimpse into the type of man he is was too much for me. (of course the SB highlights added to that) He has given me years of pure enjoyment and made turning in every game day worth it. I love the man, as much as you can love someone you're likely to never meet, and will be forever grateful for what he has meant to the Cardinals and all of us. I was too lazy to search for a thread on it. I imagine most if not all of us feel the same way.

There have been three Cardinal related episodes recently, and all are tremendous.

Larry, Aeneas, and Tillman's. I can watch all of them repeatedly.

For al the knuckle-heads in the league, we've been blessed with some truely inspirational players coming through this organization.

Go Cards!!!

Didn't get to watch it when it was on. Need to find out if it's airing again sometime.

Make sure you watch Aeneas', it might be better!
