R.I.P. Mike Wagner

Didn't see another one made yet, but R.I.P Mike Wagner. Just. saw the news on X. The only original dynasty player I ever met.

 

Posted on SD now. Very sad, one of my favorite players from the dynasty era.

Underrated, in my opinion.

RIP, Mike!

 

Is that you with him?

 

RIP Mike Wagner. He understood football as well as anyone on the 1970s team. Franco was a smart player. Ham was a smart player. Bradshaw's football intelligence was underrated. Joe Greene discovered the 4-3 slant, which made him even harder to block.

 

Yes. My first trip to the Burg in 2019 for MNF against the Dolphins.

Sorry for the enlarged picture, just as I was setting up the post, I had to run my cat to a Pet ER (He's OK for now.)

 

May he RIP.

That's a very cool picture. He always came off as one of the most likeable guys. Just a regular guy that happens to play professional football.

I hope everything is OK with your buddy. Good luck.

 

Thanks, he's OK at the moment. When I met Mike, that is exactly how he was. very friendly, reserved, and down-to-earth. It was strange; a lot of people who were around there didn't seem to realize who he was.

 

Sad to hear this. Oh my. RIP one of my favorites. Lots of the dynasty players are gone. Damn they were good and fun to watch.

 

Ah damn, underrated safety, another hero i tried to emulate in HS gone

 

RIP Mike, helluva football player. That dynasty was greatest in NFL history.

 

Did you get your cat high on catnip Good luck to the little fellow!!

My wife watches an exercise video where the mom and son exercise with 6-7 cats running around. They are people who rescue cats. They leave a ball with catnip hanging around and the cats are so funny after partaking in it.

 

RIP Mike and thank you for awesome memories. When he would make a play my friends would yell, "get em dictionary man".

 

Mike was good player. And a very underrated Steeler! He ranks on the top 10 of all Steeler safeties, I say.

May he rest in peace.
