Frank will always be remembered for three things

1. Married to Kathy Lee
2. Monday Night football
3. Walking into a trap worthy of an FBI sting during which a hidden video camera recorded the action during one of his famous cheating trysts.

I always liked him & I admired Kathy for living thru his trysts.

Agreed ... after all, he might have played "like a titian" but he did not act as if he was a deity.
