Hey guys, there is Beef. He is the guy who didnt know who the third guy in MNF booth in the 70's was. What a loser.

I always liked him. He was a better quarterback than some of his critics gave him credit for and I liked him on Monday Night Football.

I guess the "Lights" have finally been turned off.

Sad. I loved it when he would start singing at the end of a game or when a game was out of reach. RIP!
