The only national mention of Bum was Chris Berman on ESPN sunday morning show (which I missed) and last night on MNF. Berman gets ridiculed a lot for his old style and his corny ways but the man knows the history of sports and understands what certain people mean to certain cities.
No one else mentioned Bum, and they mentioned Bud in passing. If Chuck Knoll died it wold be national mourning.
Bum's Oilers lost to Pittsburgh in 78 and 79, who went on to win superbowl, and in 80 lost to raiders who went on to win super bowl.
