    RIP Sam Mills

    No relation...

    Former New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panther's linebacker Sam Mills passed away this morning after a battle with intestinal cancer.

    I originally started paying attention to him because we shared the same last name and my favorite/lucky number is 51. (which is what Sam wore) Despite being on the 'Aints, he was quite a capable linebacker which, made me watch him a bit more.

    Rest in peace Sam, your legend lives on.

    RIP Sam. He was one hell of a ball player.

          Wow. I'm sure my Dad won't be happy to hear about this - he's THE Saints fan. He can name every former-Saint that went to every other team and later won MVP or some other trophy.
          I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

            All of my favorite athletes are the over-achiever type, and he was just about the ultimate. 5-foot-9, 225, nobody would draft him. He finally got a shot in the USFL, where he dominated, & Mora brought him to the Saints when he got the job there. He made 5 Pro Bowls, and the word was that he was shaping up to be an even better coach than he was a player. Very sad news.

              Wow I thought he had come out of that, very sad to hear.Love to watch the guys that they say are to small or to slow or to whatever else to play overcome those things.

                  Sam was and is a hero here in Charlotte. I'm really bummed out about this having been a Carolina Panthers fan since they started, I feel really lucky to have been able to see him play. In front of Bank of America Stadium there is a huge statue of Sam. He will be missed. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
