I remember when he played at Michigan State and then for the Baltimore Colt's. OK, so I'm old enough to remember the Colt's in Baltimore. The man was truly a gentle giant, not like so many of the thug's that play the game now. RIP Bubba.

I remembered when he played. But mostly remember him in Police Academy and the Miller Lite ads.

I just remember him from the Police Academy movies and the beer ads. It made me sad when I heard it on ESPN radio on the drive home.

Buba was an animal on the field...watch what he does with a beer can.
He was a great role model for kids...you never read about him doing stupid things.
May he R.I.P.
