People you've known and followed since you were little/young are now in their 70's and 80's and seem to be dying left and right. Right @LoudHogRider

I hope William Shatner isn't next. That guy is a boss and still has game.

He was one of the greats.

Shatner is 92

Shatner is 92

And he's still a badass. He still does a show on the History or Discovery channel. I cannot remember which, but he looks like he's 75 years old at most.

IIRC, his health isn't great, but completely agree; badass.

Too true. The guys I grew up watching on television (Red Skelton - GOAT, Jack Benny, Dean Martin, Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball, Ed Sullivan, Dan Rowan & Dick Martin of "Laugh In" fame ), in sports and far too many musicians are mostly dead. Whether they made me laugh, want to be a pro ball player or a rock star, each of them was - in their own way - a hero to me as a boy.

But I'm blessed to have them immortalized in my memories (and on the interwebs) and grateful for the hours of entertainment and inspiration they provided.

RIP, Bobby or as Red Skelton would have said, "Good night and God bless!"

The reason for the famous chair throw was actually pretty reasonable.

"Knight exploded after the Hoosiers were called for their third foul in a span of 59 seconds. He uttered an obscenity, resulting in the first of three successive technicals, then picked up a red plastic chair with both hands and flung it onto the court."

His epitaph: "When my time on earth is gone, and my activities here are passed, I want them to bury me upside down, and my critics can kiss my ass!"

One of a kind and a basketball genius.

When Mel Brooks dies I will legit cry.

2 of my favorite clips:

1. Classic halftime freakout speech

2. The most casual “I hope they’re all dead” you’ll ever hear while on the Dan Patrick show…”I hope the rest of them go” 😂😂😂

The greatest golf instruction video of all time - by a long shot

So true. This Red is still alive but done with his shows. LMAO

Never be another one like him. World is to soft.

Losing Mike Leach and Bobby Knight within a year definitely blows. Those guys were walking one liners.
