Re: RIP Steve Sabol
It's hard to imagine where the NFL would be today without Steve and his Dad.

Re: RIP Steve Sabol
Just got through reading about his death on profootballtalk.com. Since childhood I've certainly enjoyed watching the programs that is NFL films.

Re: RIP Steve Sabol
Steve Sabol helped make football what it is today due to his epic films. This man deserves a slot in the HoF.

Re: RIP Steve Sabol
Terrible loss. I was watching NFL Network when the news initially broke. Rich Eisen was visibly shaken as he read the news that popped up on his teleprompter.

Re: RIP Steve Sabol
What an awful thing. Didn't realize he was that sick. I remember watching the HOF programing when he called his dad to let him know that his father made it...and then seeing him w/out any hair at the enshirnment pushing his dad in the wheel chair. What a cool thing to share with your father. What a sad day.

Re: RIP Steve Sabol
R.I.P. He and NFL Films captured the essence of the NFL and what separates it from every other sport.
NFL Films and the Sabols - their impact is second to none. |
