Steve Sabol is a rare American success story in that he took the company his father started and instead of resting on its laurels he took the company - and probably the NFL itself - to levels never imagined possible.

I admire his tenacity, his work-ethic and that he didn't seem to be daunted or imtimidated by his subject. His power lay in his ability to tell a story.

This man was an incredibly gifted artist with the work ethic that drove him to excellence for its own sake. As an artist he brought in other elements, MUSIC, sound, narration, on field live-microphones and many other innovations to make his story more compelling. He knew his medium like Stravinsky knew the violin.

My condolences to his family and thanks for sharing a life well lived.

May he rest in Peace.

But he didn’t build that.

Obama did.

/Feeling the Mr. Crankypants Junior today

Seriously Mr. Sabol, rest in peace, and I pray you were fortunate enough to hear “Well done, my good and faithful servant”.

Steve’s father Ed is still alive. He just turned 96.
