NFL Films' president Steve Sabol, after an 18-month battle with brain cancer, died Tuesday. He was 69.

"Steve Sabol was the creative genius behind the remarkable work of NFL Films," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. "Steve's passion for football was matched by his incredible talent and energy. ... He was a major contributor to the success of the NFL, a man who changed the way we look at football and sports, and a great friend."

His work was awesome. He died too young.

I LOVE watching all things NFL Films! Didn't the Sabols essentially popularize the art of slo-mo?

R.I.P. Steve. Your craft will live on.

PS: He's a lock for the NFL HOF.
