RIP Don Shula
A democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. And that's why the USA is a constitutional republic and not a democracy.

Lifelong Fins fan here. While he never won the Super Bowl w/Miami we had some really great years under Shula. RIP coach.

I tell it like it is, if you want smoke blown up your ass or something sugar coated. I suggest you get a Hooker and a powdered donut.

Exactly, he was our 1 and only true coach and in my opinion the greatest NFL coach of all time. He performed the job with honor and grace.Originally Posted by poundXpound

Here is what 2 great Qb's said about him.
Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino, who Shula selected in the first round of the 1983 NFL draft, said his former coach embodied the “definition of greatness.”
"You brought that winning attitude with you every day and made everyone around you better. Thank you for always believing in me,” Marino wrote on his twitter account. "You made me a better player and person. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Shula family. Love you Coach!“
Fellow Hall of Fame quarterback Bob Griese said Shula started out as his coach, but quickly became his mentor throughout the year they spent together as South Florida icons.There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!
