NFL And Green Bay Legend Bart Starr Has Died

Post by Omega »

From the Chicago Tribune:

Bart Starr, the gentlemanly quarterback and catalyst of Vince Lombardi's powerhouse Packers teams of the 1960s whose sneak won the famed "Ice Bowl" in 1967, has died. He was 85.

The Packers announced Sunday that Starr had died, citing his family. He had been in failing health since suffering two strokes and a heart attack in 2014. (excerpt)
