    • Ultimate Warrior died Tuesday at 54 ... the day after appearing on RAW AND just a few days after being inducted into the WWE hall of fame.

      • RIP Ultimate Warrior. By far my favorite WWF wrestler as a wee lad.

        • Sorry I missed the earlier Pinette posts. Deb, Thanks for pointing out my oversight.....Pinette was in the final Seinfeld episode. He was the guy who got mugged leading to the criminal indifference charges against Jerry, Elaine, Kramer and George.His best stuff was standup and his waterpark and camping routines are classic. All available on Youtube.

          • I can't say I knew who he was, but on the radio show I listen to on XM, Opie and Anthony, they were mourning the death of comedian/ventriloquist, Otto Peterson (Otto and George)

                      I agree. RIP Mr Morral.

                      Most people associate Bob Griese with perfect '72 Dolphins -- but Morral started 9 of the regular season games, and also played in the first two playoff games. I've always thought it was a shame he didn't get a chance in the Super Bowl. He did more than Griese that season. His QB rating was 91.0, while Griese's was 71.6.

                          (CNN) -- Hall of Fame former NBA coach John "Dr. Jack" Ramsay, who became a NBA television analyst years after winning a league championship with the Portland Trailblazers, has died at age 89, his longtime employer ESPN said Monday on Twitter.
                          The Philadelphia native made his mark in the collegiate and professional coaching ranks, taking St. Joseph's College to 10 postseason appearances in the 1950s and 1960s before becoming general manager of the Philadelphia 76ers, winning an NBA title in 1967.
                          He later coached the 76ers, Buffalo Braves, Portland Trailblazers and Indiana Pacers, earning a 864-783 record from 1968 to 1988. At the time of his retirement, he ranked second in wins among NBA coaches.
                          His Trailblazers won the NBA title in 1977.

                              • RIP Bob

                                Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a huge movie at the time. I think its kind of been forgotten nowadays.
