Buddy definitely marched to the beat of his own drum. RIP Buddy.

Did Pat Summit pass also!!!?

ESPN said the other day she was fading. I'm sure she would have preferred we remember her as a great coach, not a great women's coach.

RIP Buddy, best defense ever is the 1985 Bears
& I'm not a big fan of either the bears or Buddy Ryan

I wasn't a big fan of him as a head coach, but as a DC he was
good/great at times...
I wasn't a fan of Philly either but he made them winners,
because of the defense...

I remember still him punching OC Kevin Gillbright {?}
on the sidelines of the Oilers IIRC

He certainly was a different dude, allegedly the player loved him too...

His kids Rob & Rex have done well living off his reputation...
