    People die. Never heard of him. Sorry for your losses, though. Before we know it, none of us that once posted in the 21st century will be here. I'm gonna eat a chicken pattie, and drink some more. Watching these sexy bitches report the news.

    RIP

    I really like listening to him on NPR. He was a breath of fresh air when today most jounalist and sports broadcasters have a bias opinions and not enough journalistic integrity. Which is why I like shows like HBO real sports.
