I was at the pool with my kids this afternoon when I got the news that Dwight White passed away after a short time at a Pittsburgh hospital. The four-time Super Bowl Champion was gracious enough to be a guest on our show as we were just getting started. We talk here and on the TV show about making life easier, but as a player, Dwight's job was to make life very difficult for the other team's quarterback...and he did a nice job of that. Last September, Dwight joined us for the whole half hour and besides getting to hear his stories about his time playing with our Pittsburgh Steelers, he had us all laughing with his good natured coaching of some members of our audience.

Dwight White was funny and charming and kind to everyone on the staff and everyone in the audience that day. He even let me try on the huge Super Bowl ring he was wearing.
Steelers Chairman Dan Rooney said this afternoon "Dwight White was one of the greatest players to ever wear a Steelers uniform."
Our thoughts and prayers are with his wonderful family at this difficult time.
