I miss watching him play. To quote the movie Heaven Can Wait, "If there is a football team in Heaven, I know (Walter) is first string".

Im sure seeing him live was amazing. I had the chance to go to many of the Chicago Bulls games in the 90's, and to see Jordan play was something great. I can only imagine what it was like to see Payton live.

He was absolutely amazing, he always hit the tackler harder than they hit him...and then he would help them up.

Amazing player.
It was sad to see him waste away when the cancer hit him.
