Kevin Greene has passed away

[OregonRamsFan]

Kevin was one of the all time greats. Saddened to hear of his demise. I’m proud to say he was once a Ram. RIP brother.

Damn. My favorite defensive player until AD...I became a fan in the late 80’s during his Ram heyday. And still my guy on D if I’m ever beating up on the kids playing Tecmo Super Bowl. The dude was a beast. Sucked when he left to have success elsewhere.

RIP, KG. So young

 

[Faceplant]

Fucking hell....RIP KG. One of my faves to ever do it.

 

[Mister Sin]

I remember back in the day when I watched the WWF and he came in a kicked some ass! RIP

 

[Kevin]

What a shame! RIP Kevin Greene!

 

[Corbin]

Wow very surprised by this. I know that I’m getting older when some of the people I idolized as a kid are starting to pass.
RIP Kevin Greene you lived a full and rich life. To your family an easing of your passing.

Loved watching you play #91!!

RIP Kevin Greene, I didn't see you play live but wish I had.

Man, the Rams losing to the Jets really fucked shit up

 

[Ellard80]

He was a bad ass.

RIP Mr Greene.

Yeah, this one hurts.

I'm a fan from So Cal. I went to a few games in St. Louis.

After a game, I saw Kevin outside where the players were exiting the stadium and I struck up a conversation with him. Super nice guy.

I mentioned I was at the game in Anaheim when his wife sung the National Anthem. His face lit up when I mentioned that and was shocked I remembered her singing that day. It was fun to meet him, and awful to hear of his passing.

 

[Mister Sin]

I was talking about this to my wife. I pray that he didnt end his life. Too many players have CTE and end it all.

I really hope it was a peaceful, quick end.

This just has me fuckin shocked.

Sad day

All blessings to his family

 

[Ramhusker]

Damn, dude was full of hustle and grit. He played with his hair on fire. RIP 91! Always a Ram!

 

[Dodgersrf]

No words.
God speed Kevin

 

[RamDino]

He was definitely in the Ram Family Hall of Fame. Great, great player. RIP Kevin Greene. Way too young.

 

[iamme33]

not sure my memory is right but seems like i remember losing games and al of a sudden green would take over the game and almost single handed win it for us. rip kg and peace and blessing to his family.

 

[RocknRam29]

Wasn't he just on Family Feud earlier this year with other NFL Hall of famers?

RIP Kevin Greene

Just can't believe he's gone. Kevin was one of my favorite pass rushers. Had the pleasure of meeting him briefly at a Rams booster club activity at an Anaheim Jr. High School where the Rams practiced. He was by far the most popular player there so there was a crowd around him seeking his autograph. He didn't stay long and as he headed back to his Mercedes Benz convertible he accidentally bumped into me and I fell. He extended his hand to help me back up and apologized and made sure I was okay. Yes, he was a badass on the gridiron and class act off of it. I'm still in shock and left wondering what the cause of death was. At 58 he was just nine years younger than I am now. I remember a game against the Raiders at the Coliseum when he sacked their QB in the end zone twice. Two safeties in one game. I think the record still stands. Visiting Ram fans were going nuts while Raider fans just buried their heads in their hands. Hated to see him move on to Pittsburgh but I would even cheer him on there. RIP and Godspeed. See you on the other side.

 

[JackKirbyFan]

Wow RIP.

I Remember us beating the Niners 88 in their prime when Greene sacked Montana 4 1/2 times. The Niners had no answer.

One of the best pass rushers of all time.

A memorable game for sure.
