As always Deb, great job.
I've been off the wall busy lately, so I wasn't able to write anything lengthy about Coach Landry.
For me, his memory is summed up with a simple feeling I would have whenever I saw him on the sidelines; quiet confidence.
Coach Landry would calmly walk the sidelines, there was no screaming, yelling, cursing...all of that was exchanged for a very cool demeanor which made me feel like the game was under his control.
In the early years as each season ended with a heartbreaking play off loss, it was impossible to not feel his pain as you saw him interviewed after each loss.
AND that made the joy of beating the Dolphins in the SB that much greater.
Oh...and...his offense was SO much fun to watch.
RIP Coach Landry. Danny White is correct, you're truly not gone.
