Frank Wycheck, 3 time Pro Bowler and co-star of the "Music City Miracle" dead at 52.


Wow a shocker.  Imagine playing that gladiator sport like two trucks colliding 16 Sundays for a decade and then ‘fall and hit your head’ when youre at home and that’s the one that gets you.  RIP

@Ulitzer95 you’re a tiresome cunt.  If you weren’t such a pussy coward you might post a comment instead of your emojis.  I won’t hold my breath.  It’s unlikely you can formulate into words what is scrambling around in your cranium when you tappity tap tap the emoji thingy. Fucksake, I have you blocked; you’d think that was enough.
