Sam Mills passes away.

I was shocked to see that Sam Mills died the other day. I knew he was fighting cancer, but I didn't know that he was in that bad of shape. The man showed us that you didn't have to 6'-3" 250 to play linebacker. Sam only was about 5'-9" and 225 or so, but he played the position like an All-Pro, which he was on more than one occasion. As I recall, that linebacking crew he was on with the Saints was one of the best ever, besides Sam they had Rickey Jackson, Vaughn Johnson, can't recall who the fourth guy was, but they were a great group.

Sam was a class act who will be missed.
