Joe Lauranitis, aka Road Warrior Animal, passes away at age 60.  Also the father of former Ohio St LB James  Lauranitis.


Loved, loved, loved the Road Warriors when I was a kid.

Gale ran over my Dad in high school in Omaha.  Spoke reverently of Gale zig zagging up and down the field.

In the Ghetto came on the radio a couple weeks back.  Aged even worse than you would have expected it to.  But A Little Less Conversation might be my favorite Elvis song.
