Frank Gifford died suddenly at home today; he was 84.
He was a California boy who went on to become a star player for the New York Giants football team in the 50s and 60s, a broadcaster credited with making Monday Night Football must-see tv, and a fill-in host on his wife Kathy Lee Gifford's morning show with Regis Philbin.

My dad loved Don Meredith, Howard Cosell, and Frank Gifford (^right) together on Monday Night Football
