Art "The Bulldog" Donavan, defensive tackle for the Baltimore Colts, passed away today at the age of 89. Artie was quite a character. One quote of his was "The only weight I ever lifted was 24 ounces. It was a Schlitz. I always replaced my fluids". The Colts retired Artie's #70. I met Art many years ago while still living in Baltimore. He was a story teller extraordinaire. If he didn't make you laugh, no one could. RIP Art.
