Here's a related article.

Not about his passing, but about the fact that he was back in the hospital and was going to miss his book event. That's what my friend was in town for.

Sail On Captain Tony

I just got a text message from a friend who is in Key West. She says that rumor has it that Capt. Tony has passed. Any confirmations from the flock?

Nothing is coming up yet via 'net searches.

If so ... SAIL ON Captain! Sail on!

A truly sad day.

Now there are reports he may not be done!

There was also talk that he may play for another team, perhaps the Dolphins! Draft Matt Ryan and let him sit back for the year and learn from Farve!

I went to Cincy last year and arrived late (only a half hour before the concert after parking and trying to get set up) didn't get to tailgate much so I want to give it another try this year.

We got there a little late last year too. About a half hour. Not this year, 6:00am it is! ;)
