I believe something like that may be in the works.

we lost a great man..

what a kind gentle soul he had.

i'll always remember his kind words.

i never knew he was sick.
He wanted it that way. I asked him to let me post a thread so you all would know he was sick and could send out your thoughts and prayers. He said, "Hos, the season is coming. They've got more important things to worry about."

I kid you not. He made me promise to keep it virtually silent. Very few of us even knew he was ill. Less than 20 altogether.

I always meant to ask him what the "40" in CBZ40 meant to signify. Perhaps a tribute to Bill Bates.

It just made the world "ok" to come here in the morning, see him posting those articles...nice routine...I dunno, I keep thinking "The world was ok when Cbz was here in the morning"

Really, really sad news. I feel stunned. Really no words right now, I just want to be a part of this thread to express my deep remorse and sadness.

IIRC, it was the number of years he was a fan of the Cowboys...at the time he'd join the forum.

His sig had been updated at one time to state CBZ44, but he never changed his name.

He started posting on forums in 1999. It was meant to signify a Cowboys fan of 40 years. As the years mounted he simply never changed the number. I have literally known him for 8 years on these forums.

When I called 3 weeks ago and he assured me he was going to kick this in the butt he also told me he was coming to Arizona and taking me up on my offer of a good Mexican food. Man, I wish that could have happened before this.

Ah, well that makes sense. I noticed towards the end that he would post the articles, but not really partake in the discussions. Probably didn't have the strength.

If it's any consolation, and at the risk of sounding corny, he and Sgt. Hagerty are probably enjoying a cold one as we speak.

A great fan, a great forum member, and a better person.

You will be missed Pops.

Enjoy the better view!
