I'm legend. That's the nothing personal word of the day. We lost a legend today. Don

Shula. 33 years as an NFL coach, larger than life personality here in South Florida.

Past away today, 90 years old, 1930 to 2020. One of the great things, I mean, I'm lucky

in every way. There's no doubt about that. But one of the great pleasures in all the years,

I was in sports in Florida. The number of times I had an opportunity to meet Don Shula over

the years more than a handful. Had him in the sweet for a game, had him on the field several

times at several charity events. He was for a legend. One of the most interesting and

nicest people you'll come across. Right? So you spend time, let's say meeting a bill par

sales, who was my coaching when I was a giant fan. So you got a chance to meet bill par

sales who won two Super Bowls for you. A little more ornery, a little less social, understandable.

But Don Shula would spend time with underprivileged kids. He'd spend time with our fans. He'd spend

time with people who were just so much less fortunate than he was. Understanding that he

was carrying with him the pleasure of being a 33 season NFL coach. The winningest coach in

NFL history. This is not just an ordinary coach. Two Super Bow wins, perfect season here in

Miami. But what he means to this community, it's a big loss. And you knew as the years had

passed the last few years, he was getting older, he was in a wheelchair, a motorized wheelchair,

he never stopped his smile, he never stopped being friendly. And what I found most interesting about

Don Shula is that he never had the trappings of success that many players, executives and coaches

have who have Super Bowl or World Series or NBA championship rings on their fingers. He wore

his ring as a reminder, not to himself. But for other people to get to feel as though they were

a champion too. And I learned ring etiquette from Don Shula. When I wear my World Series ring, I

let anyone hold it, I let anyone try it on, anyone take pictures. I don't keep it in a vault
