RIP Bum Phillips

I remember being in the Astrodome for the Texas Sesquicentennial. Its was Bum's first return back since his coaching days. As the Cadillac convertible carried him around people cried and shouted out "We love you Bum."

But hey, he treated Bum great compared to the way he treated Cleveland Williams. If that don't send him to hell then it must be real hard to get in down there. But it would improve my chances of going t'other direction.

And it prolly shows Houston thinks more of him as a man than a football coach... just sayin.'
