You can see a video of LeBeau being honored in this forum thread: LeBeau at City Council.
According to reporters in attendance this morning, LeBeau got poetic about some of the players he coached during his time in Pittsburgh, and said the numbers put up by the 2008 defense may never be surpassed.
LeBeau kills his speech. Funny, poignant. Then awarded a key to the city.
