This was absolutely awesome. What Eddie D did goes beyond simply spending money. You can see it in Freddie Solomon's widow when she speaks of Eddie DeBartolo. You can see it when Jeff Fuller speaks of how Eddie was there for him. The man had a heart of gold. This show brought back a lot of memories and I also can say I learned a lot. Here's to a return to Camelot under Jed York.

Watched it last night and absolutely loved it. Eddie D was the man I only hope that Jed learned something from him. He deserves to be in the HOF for sure, one thing is for sure I dont think Eddie could be an owner in today's NFL. Guys like him would constantly be in the media headlines.

I have a feeling if Eddie D had stayed as owner he might be seen as a Jerry Jones type. Not sure that type of owner can work with a somewhat level playing field (salary cap).
