I watched the documentary about him this weekend. So sad. Was quite a character.

He was here one minute, then BOOM,
Dead.
Watched the special on Madden on Christmas Day, was just the best.
There's Madden and then the rest. Super guy.
RIP

Wayne Thiebald, painter

For anyone who's at all artistic and understands... my favorite quote of his was:
If you sit around waiting for inspiration, all you get is a sore ass.
A great painter with a great work ethic.

Actress Betty White, 99. She would have turned 100 in two weeks
https://people.com/tv/betty-white-the-g ... ead-at-99/
Watch her gig as host of SNL or even better chugging vodka with Letterman in her 80s. Both hilarious
and this priceless bit from GoldenGirls about herring (where the other two women eventually lose it and Betty never stops delivering the shtick deadpan)

Re: Obituaries - Gone but not forgotten.
Former NY Jints coach Dan Reeves:
https://www.newsday.com/sports/football ... 1.50465321
https://www.wfla.com/wp-content/uploads ... jpg?w=1280
He and his wife, Pam, embraced the New York-area lifestyle and culture, and he even seemed to enjoy the give-and-take with the area’s sports media, for whom he was known for his accessibility and blunt honesty.
In mid-December of 1998, Reeves underwent quadruple bypass heart surgery. A month later, he was coaching the Falcons to an upset of the Vikings in the NFC Championship Game.
Two weeks after that, he lost the Super Bowl to the Broncos.
The morning after the game, several New York reporters met with him for an exit interview. One jokingly asked him to show off his heart surgery scar. So he did, unbuttoning his shirt in the middle of the Falcons’ hotel lobby.
That was Reeves, a man’s man from a more brutish era of football who had a sense of humor about himself and the game.

Damn. As a Falcons fan I loved him. Also had fond memories of him when with the Broncos vs Redskins.

Clyde Bellecourt, 85, RIP. You may not be familiar with the name but you know of his work to remove offensive "Indian" names and symbols off of sports teams:
https://projecthumanities.asu.edu/sites ... -color.png
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clyde_Bellecourt
Great guy who I had the pleasure and privilege of meeting and chatting with a couple of times. Very accessible and friendly to all. Years of government Gestapo like persecution never stopped him from his great humanitarian work. He will never be replace.
