Best. Sports Movie. Ever.

I saw Brian’s Song before I saw The Godfather. My first reaction to seeing Sonny Corleone was, “That’s Picc!”

Jeanne Morris wrote a very good but vastly overlooked book about Brian Piccolo titled “A Short Season.” While the movie is based on Gale Sayers autobiography “I Am Third,” Morris’s book is more insightful about Piccolo’s life. Her husband, Johnny Morris, was also on those Bears teams with Piccolo and Sayers.
