Can still remember watching the Texans along with running back Abner Haynes. The Texans beat the Oilers for the AFC championship and then upped and moved to Kansas City, back then the Cowboys were woeful and people thought the wrong team had moved.

One heck of an oilman, too.

Prayers up for his healing.

Knew it must be bad when he missed the Thanksgiving game with the Chiefs. Prayers for Mr Hunt and his family.

I know a man who went to college (SMU) with Lamar. My friend loves telling the story of the day Lamar borrowed a small amount of money from him. It seems Lamar's millionaire dad made sure his boys grew up on a tight budget, just as he did.

And no, Lamar didn't pay my friend back. Truth be told, the amount was less than $5.00 and my friend enjoyed a good chuckle over the "debt." Plus he enjoys telling the story.

We'll all pray that Lamar has a peaceful journey. He's a fine man and a true Southern gentleman.
