I think that Coach Lombardi's contemporary, Don Shula, said it best: Belicheat. Shula called him Belicheat because he and the Patriots were cheating and they got caught cheating. I hope he stays retied so Don Shula will retain the most wins for an NFL Head Coach.

Lombardi easily could’ve had seven titles instead of five. The Packers dominated the Eagles in the 1960 NFL championship game, but the big play was just missing. A costly decision to go for fourth down instead of a short field goal early in the game deep in Eagles territory cost the Packers, as did having to accept two chip-shot field goals instead of TD’s, as well as a missed 12-yard FG just before halftime. Later in the game, Lombardi went for it on 4th down and failed again, this time from the Eagles 22. Converting any one of those opportunities might have given GB the win. They lost by 4 and the game ended with the Packers on the Eagles 9. Three years later, Lombardi had one of his best teams at 11-2-1, but both losses were to the Bears who finished 11-1-2, and GB didn’t even win the Western Conference.

The year Lombardi stepped down, they missed the playoffs-and just barely. If the Old Man had come back for one more year-and made it clear that it was his last year-the Packers would have rallied behind him and definitely made the playoffs and probably won another Super Bowl. They would have beaten the jets for certain.

John Facenda was gifted with vocal chords from God!! Perfectly suited to narrate a tribute to the greatest coach to ever inhabit this earth. Every syllable he utters touches the very heart and soul of the listener. Just as Facenda was the symbol of vocal artistry in his craft, Vincent Thomas Lombardi transcended the sport of Professional Football. View every tribute to this legend and they all trumpet the same basic tenet. THERE NEVER WAS, NOR WILL THERE EVER BE ANOTHER VINCE LOMBARDI. The greatest symbol of dedication to excel that ever lived. In any field of endeavor. His mere presence physically and spiritually was enough to inspire others to achieve beyond their wildest dreams. Five NFL Championships in his last seven seasons. Including victory in the first two Super Bowls. The trophy every team aspires to win bears his name. While the only trophy that will bear Bill Belichicks moniker is the "James Bond Award" for the NFL's greatest spy network. Facendas golden description of how Lombardi stood for everything that was good and solid in America rings truer now than ever before. Here in a nation that has plumbed the depths of despair with Joe Biden as our leader!! Since the Revolutionary War, no American leader could stand toe to toe with the qualities Lombardi embodied. Lombardi played with an integrated roster in an era when blacks were nearly ostracized from the game. Lombardi coached two players that were openly gay and threatened to fire anyone who said a word against them. WHAT A SUPERB BLEND OF MANLY QUALITIES HE WAS. Completely intolerant of lack of dedication. Totally open to everyone that placed the team above themselves. That is why Vince Lombardi stands above all others. As a coach. And more importantly as a man.
