Didnt get a chance to comment yet on Norm, but it seems Johnny Red Kerr has passed this evening.

Who will be the third to go? Red's death was expected but it's sad. Listening to the Bulls will never be the same without him.

Johnny "Red" Kerr's passing caught me off guard, because it was around 11:20p or so when I found out on chicagotribune.com that he died, and I was online at another site that I post for, www.ChicagolandRadioandMedia.com. When rumors originally spread online a few weeks ago about trades involving the current Bulls' roster, there was a story in which it was revealed why "Red" was conspicously absent from several recent home games. & it turns out that the much talked halftime ceremony February 10th during the Bulls/Pistons' game honoring Johnny's career was moved up as a result. I know he was a fixture until this season on the team's broadcasts and is synonymous with Bulls' history overall. It's a sad day for Bulls' fans young & old. First, Norm Van Lier and now, the first head coach when the Bulls started playing basketball in 1966 as an expansion NBA franchise. R.I.P., guys.

Would inhaling all that talcum have anything to do with it?

Could Reds familiy sue Jordan?

CUP- Lookin out for those who can see behind the big white cloud.

He was the food critic.
My Dad used to call him the Food Fruit or the Food F@g.

That's interesting... my dad used to call him downstairs for breakfast.
