RIP Ernie Holmes: 1948-2008

Former Steeler Ernie Holmes died last night in a car accident near Beaumont Texas. The 59 year old defensive tackle played alongside, and in the shadow of, famed defensive linemen Joe Greene, Dwight White, and LC Greenwood as a member of the feared Steel Curtain Defense and took home two Super Bowl rings in 1975 and 1976.

Sorry for the downer, but the dude had to be recognized.
