Nice to see 2 class acts both on and off the field. Ricky Bell would have put up some awesome numbers had it not been for his condition. Just like the Chiefs Joe Delaney, a true hero, taken from us much too soon.
@ClearwaterMMA dougg williams pertty much didnt suck he threw 5 td passes in a super bowl an won it i think that hes did more in that oday then oull ever do in your whole fuckin life get over it and stop being a hater.
Ricky Bell is one the greatest football player to ever play the game. An also one the great human beings the world has ever seen before. A true hero not just as a pro football player but as a man too. He should be in the NFL Hall Of Fame. Not because of his stats cause he died so young but because this is way a football player should carry himself. Like a true hero someone any kid would love to have poster hanging on their door of. There will never be another star like Ricky Bell
Thank you NIkoHBucs for uploading this video. Ricky Bell is my second cousin. I was born in 1979, so I really don't remember him. My mother, one of his many first cousins, was very close to him, told me a great deal about him and his brother Archie Bell of Archie Bell and the Drells. Yes, he did have a rare muscle disease and died of heart failure. Our family appreciate you for the video and for dismissing rumors about his condition. Any other videos on him would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Look at downtown Tampa at 5:44. Unreal how much that city has grown!! RIP - Ricky...even though I was a little kid...very little...I was able to watch you in person as a Bucs fan!! GRYS!!
Life can be so cruel. Ricky Bell died of heart failure at such a young age. He should be remembered by everyone who considers themselves a true Bucs fan.
Ricky Bell...RIP...we loved you in TPA...you're skinny compared to the roided-up RB's in today's NFl...but you played your heart out at 6'2", 220 lbs.
I watched "Truimph of the heart" the Rick bell story today on Netflix. It was the first time I seen the movie in 20 years since the movie came on TV.

For the record, Bell died in 1984 of heart failure caused by dermatomyositis. This is the author.
He did not have sickle cell or a bad heart. Its a rare muscle disease, and as we know, the heart is a muscle.
