I believe he was  a restaurant owner in "My Two Dad's".  Been a while but I know he was in it.  When I would go to bears games as a kid I'ld always Look for him and Walter standing on the sidelines.  Saw him eating a Ditka's restaurant a few year back.  Gave him a nod and he nodded back so that was cool.

Ha!  Yes he was!  That show was ahead of its time!  But today it would be "My Two Dads that Used to be Moms but are now non-binary raising a girl"  I love that show.  Paul Rieser!

The Irish tried getting Butkis but on his visit he said he was getting married and the coach said something to him like "Ahhhh, you don't want to get married at your age" and d!(k basically picked the Illini right after that sentence.

If Butkus or Ditka had to get voted off the state of Illinois island, who do you think the peeps of Illinois would vote to boot out?   (Assuming they were both alive:))

 
Hopefully the Bears used all of the Butkus magic last night and there is none left for the Illini tonight.

Pretty sure Alex Karras was happy to great him on the great football field in Heaven.  RIP to two of the toughest players ever - one a Bear, one a Lion.
