Andy Griffith died this morning at his Dare County home in North Carolina. He was 86 years old. He was the last of the "good breed of actors". Many of us from the 60 -80's will miss him a lot.

RIP Andy.

Had the utmost respect (and fear) for him as a Dolphins fan in the 70s. I still have nightmares from the '74 Playoffs watching Stabler toss the ball into the "Sea of Hands" and deny the 'Phins a 3rd straight trip to the Super Bowl.
