    I saw that on SportsCenter this morning. Sad. "Turn out the lights. The party's over". RIP.

        I kind of remember him from some TV commercials he did in the 70's (I think)

          I loved him as a QB and on MNF. He couldn't stand Howard Cosell and wrote in his book that Howard was drunk in the booth one night and puked on his shoes. lol RIP Dandy Don

                      Don't really remember his playing days but really enjoyed him on MNF! Every time near the end of the game he'd start singing "Turn out the lights the party's over".
                      Yep Zemo, best MNF crew ever!
