Wow... Bill Walsh Died
According to a report on KCRA, former San Francisco 49ers head coach Bill Walsh died Monday following a battle with leukemia.

FOX Sports on MSN - NFL - Former 49ers coach Bill Walsh dies

I didn't know he had leukemia... sad to see one of the greats go.

As a long time, dedicated 49er fan, it's hard to believe that Bill Walsh passed away. He was born in the same month and year as my dad. I knew he had leukemia, but I thought he would win this fight. God Bless the Walsh family and rest in peace Bill!!!

Saw this on TV when I was out shopping yesterday. Not only did football lose a great coach, but mankind lost a great leader.
