Hall of Fame coach Bill Walsh, the architect of the San Francisco 49ers' dynasty in the 1980s, died Monday, according to a report on the San Francisco Chronicle's web site. He was 75.
The word Genius gets tossed around a lot, but this guy truely was one and he actually changed the way football is played. RIP

wow, that is horrible. You can't really have a discussion about the NFL in the 80's without him. His assistants back then are still kicking ass off of what they learned off of him.

Leukemia. Too bad, he was a great coach and seemed like a decent guy.
