Sayers was the premier running back in the NFL, when I became a fan. I watched the game on TV where he suffered the devastating knee injury, that helped inspire the movie, Brian's Song, still my favorite movie of all time.
Brian's Song featured the friendship of Sayers with Brian Piccolo, who filled in for Sayers during his injury while helping him train to come back. Piccolo would soon fall victim to cancer.
