THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT DON MEREDITH NOBODY DARED TO TELL FOR 40 YEARS!

Don Meredith was the most beloved personality in Monday Night Football history. 13 years. 40 million viewers every week. The singing. The humor. Dandy Don. Everybody was watching. Nobody was talking about what they were actually seeing. He was drinking in the booth. Every Monday night. For 13 years. The production staff knew. Howard Cosell knew. ABC knew. They called it charm and they called it personality and they built the most watched sports broadcast in American television history around it while the man at the center of it was dealing with alcoholism and depression that nobody in the institution was willing to name out loud. He left in 1984. The real reason was never honestly explained. He spent the rest of his life in Santa Fe, away from the cameras, managing what the 11 seasons of professional football and the 13 years in that booth had left him with. He died in 2010. He was 72. The tributes were warm. The truth was still missing. This is the shocking truth about Don Meredith that nobody dared to tell for 40 years. #DonMeredith #NFLLegends #BuriedLegends
