RIP Lenny...

Times were so different then; went to school with Lenny Jr. Johnny Robinson lived on my street. These were regular people sacrificing themselves for a sport we all love.

I can still see him with Nick on Inside the NFL and hear his words of wisdom discussing how you weren't going to win many football games if you don't score any points. One particular play stands out where Len says 'oh no' as Elvis throws a perfect telegraphed strike to Junior on the Chargers for a pick-6 at least ten seconds before it happened.

One of a kind... Rest well, Lenny. Say hello to my dad when you see him.

What an amazing career and work ethic. He was always ahead of his time. He is Number 1 on the Mount Rushmore of KC sports. RIP.

Man I am actually without words. I was 7 years old when the Chiefs won SB 4. I was born in New Orleans and lived there when the event took place in Tulane stadium in NOLA. Luckily, my uncle (my mothers brother) went to that SB and actually gave me the ticket stub many, many years later when he knew I was a die hard Chiefs fan. Lenny "The Cool" was an incredible icon for Kansas City and I personally admire ALL that he has given to your city. He is an absolute LEGEND and will be sorely missed. God rest his soul and may he truly RIP. Thank you Len Dawson for all of the memories and devotion you gave to the town of Kansas City.

Bon Voyage Lenny. The coolest cat from my youth who wasn't a guitar player.
