    One of my very earliest sports memories was him breaking the all time HR record.
    Same. Maybe the best in his era, just behind Willie Mays (who is still living). Aaron recently got the CV-19 vaccine, about 2 wks ago, to encourage black people to get the shots.

        R.I.P. Cloris Leachman, 94, and Cicely Tyson, 96. Both great actresses.

                R.I.P. Rush Limbaugh, 70, after his battle with Lung Cancer.

                Personally, this is a gut punch. I've been listening since the early 90's, so he's been a part of the daily routine for almost 30 years. Whether you agree with him or not, he was a consummate radio professional, and probably the most influential voice in politics. He is irreplaceable.

                      Probably not a lot of guys on here who were fans of The Fat Boys, but that was a.big part of the 80s hip hop scene. A friend of mine toured with them for a year & actually wrote the song "Wipe Out" for them.
