To Valhalla

I was sad to learn the Eugene "mercury" Morris passed away. He was another of the greats on that '72 undefeated dolphins team and became their ersatz spokesman. 

Mercury was quite the character, but had a darker side where he got involved with drugs, and spent some time in prison after his playing days.  

But he was always kind of humble about it all and was honest about his mistakes. 

I had the pleasure of interviewing him many years ago. I don't recall where the full recording disappeared off to, but here's a clip I put on YouTube.
