Loved Lou as well, he was my favorite football media personality growing up, he wasn't crass like Sammy and the likes, he was 100% likable.
To me he actually is the biggest name in the sports history when you consider what he done to bring football to us all.
The AFL has to make him a legend, because what do we have legends for but to remind us of the people that greatly contributed to this game.
Goals for 2017
=============
Play the most anti-social football in the AFL

RIP
If Lou, Jack and Bobby (God Rest Their Souls) were alive today doing League Teams, it would be the highest rating football show by the length of the Flemmington straight. Derm said Lou once said to him "go through you career but remember, there are two things that are free, fresh air and servility". He did indeed serve and please us well.

A true great in so many ways. Honest, funny and a gentleman. Small in physical statue, giant in influence.
RIP Louie. Bet you're holding hands with your Edna now, and telling her one of your jokes.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

The image of Lou there in Lygon St with Mario Bortelotto tipping a plate of spaghetti over his head will stay with me forever...........Oh for the infectious enthusaism for the game in media types today...instead of them blandly & blindly following of the AFL propaganda machine.
RIP Lou, the voice of TV footy from my childhood years & forever.
Life is pain....... anyone who says differently is selling something.

Anything he didn't eat, Mario got to tip over his head. Morae of story; don't bet against the blues in Grand Finals.
Mario Bortolotto, what a legend.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?
