Let it be Cookie
Growing up in Buffalo, NY there has been one common theme that I heard a lot when it came to the Buffalo Bills. That theme is that Cookie Gilchrist is the best Buffalo Bill ever to put on the uniform. However, Cookie needs to let things go before it is too late.
Recently as reported in Larry Felser’s article that Gilchrist has cancer. I hope for and pray for the best. I know how it is to have a sick partent, and a family member with cancer.
My aunt had cancer a few years ago, and so has an uncle. It is a scary thing. Even though it does not take much to relize that everything in life means soemthing becomes even more important.
Gilchrist for years has held resentment that Ralph Wilson did not pay him more. I understand his point, but just for one day Cookie let it be. Let that resentment go, and let the fans say thank you for what you have done for this team. Feel the appreciation and the love. Something that no amount of money can ever beat.
