I say give Tim the Kensington Expressway.
Seems like it is the least we could do for a guy who spoke so highly of Buffalo. I can't think of a single person who did more to promote Buffalo in a positive way than Tim Russert. As far as i'm concerned, there is no honor too great for this proud Buffalo resident.
DEFINITELY name the airport after him.
In 20 years no body will know WTF he was and most of his pals from S. Buffalo probably never even watched his show, a bit too high brown for them. Go Bills!
Russert was OK, but far from good, let alone great.
For chrissakes - they didn't even fuss as much with Walter Cronkite or Huntley and Brinkley - who ARE 'Great".
Russert was a hack at best - his only claim to fame was he was from Buffalo...
But name an Airport after him - sorry - Buffalo Bob Smith or a host of others - past Presidents - would be more fitting...
The orgy of overblown and undeserved acolades was much too much...
