Somebody is going to have to honor this guy...

Something big happened today.

It's not on the ESPN Front Page.

It's not on the ESPN NFL page at all!!

So discussion on the injuries of Week Four, that the Cleveland Indians avoided chicken and beer in their run to the Play-In Game, etc. and so forth, was more important than this.

So, we go over to SI.com...

You literally have to go about 80% down the NFL page's headlines, below the injury reports, below the fact that a Houston fan bought a Matt Schaub jersey and burned it, below that the A's in the playoffs has moved the Raider game this week to some absurd overnight slot on the East Coast...

... to find out that no less than L.C. Greenwood of the famed "Steel Curtain" died this morning at the age of 67.

This isn't a schlub who was in the league for a cup of coffee...

This was one of the baddest asses in the league in the 1970's.

And you disrespect his legacy and the legacy of the "Steel Curtain" like this...

Really...

So why so little coverage?  The coroner hasn't released any information, at least according to SI.com, of cause of death.

What, does his death, compiled with a lot of the others, soil your beautiful minds that you can't enjoy the games so much without being worried someone might die from Dashon Goldson's next little stupidity (which will probably come in Week 6 -- Tampa Bay has a bye next week...)??

Why so little coverage?  Did Roger Goodell order this covered up in the "NFL News of the Week" because he doesn't want his little fan-minions even thinking of the players as human beings anymore??

Really...

You disrespect him and the legacy of the "Steel Curtain" by doing that, so you know.

Oh, that's right, it's before ESPN launched -- it doesn't exist...

Blat...
