Paying respect to an old school all world, allCane…

October 25th marks the six year anniversary of the loss of an old school All Sports legend, George Rahal.

Always early, never late, priced items like a madman, took down would-be criminals and never took a paycheck after a day’s work. Big George loved his Canes because he loved his family and knew Miami needs wins to keep the family business rolling. Family first and the Canes, a close second.

Those of you who knew him, think about him for a few minutes today. We all have our classic stories. Remember one of yours and honor the man today.

Two weeks before he passed, G saw his last Canes game on TV. He was 86 and the last Miami touchdown he witnessed was Dorsey to Shockey for the 27-24 win over Florida State. The lasting image he had of the Noles was despair after Wide Right III. We should all go so gracefully.

If allCanes had a Ring of Honor, George Rahal would have his name unveiled today. Me? I’d just like to talk a little Canes football with my granddad one more time. Maybe ask him to throw a little good luck our way in Atlanta this weekend. We need the win, big guy!

Salud!
