Before commencing, a moment to acknowledge Wade Wilson was one of not the good guys, but one of the best guys.

The former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and long time quarterbacks coach died recently at the age of 60.

You probably forgot that Wade was actually suspended by the NFL in 2007 because he was caught taking a banned supplement. He wasn’t even playing then. He said he took the substance to counter his diabetes, which he had dealt with during his playing career.

After that dumb suspension was announced in ‘07 he was on a conference call with a few of us reporters, and said he would forever be branded a cheater.
