Lane Dawson dies at 87

Quarterback Len Dawson #16 of the Kansas City Chiefs drops back to pass against the Oakland Raiders during an early circa 1970's NFL football game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.

Meanwhile, Lamar Hunt founded the American Football League in 1960.

"I remember (Browns owner/coach) Paul Brown saying, 'Hey, there's a bunch of sons of rich people. This is a hobby for them,'" Dawson recalled. "'It won't last more than a year or two. It's not going to be very long.'"

"I didn't have any idea he was doing that, so it ended up starting my broadcasting career," Dawson said.
