That's one of the things that I hate about getting older. Seems like every day, somebody I used to watch on TV or in movies as a kid is passing away.

All football is is a bunch of over-pumped jocks on steroids who say they're straight while they smack each other's behinds and chase each other around on a field so they can tackle another guy to play with that guy's ball.

Yeah, we are losing all the good ones and are left with the new talentless trash like the Kardashians.
