He made the Daytona 500 strip back in the day, correct?

Oh no, that's terrible. Had no idea he was ill. Great guy, think he was an attorney as well, right? Nas, can you PM me his real name?

We all knew him. He was essentially the same guy in person that he was in our community.

Because of his sons, he struggled with what he was facing, but he didn't want any pity. I respected that. I went by his house a couple of weeks ago, and we talked and drank for hours. He had made peace with the process. Seacrest and I were supposed to stop by on Friday. Maybe we all can have a virtual shot of whiskey in his memory.


It certainly seems like that after the fact. Given his passion around a few topics both sports and non sports it never occurred to me that a guy with serious serious health issues could be that passionate and vociferous while near the end. He was obviously very strong and it showed.

Maybe we should all have that beer this weekend one last time. I still don't believe this. I thought this was one of those joke RIP threads about a bad post.

Horrible.


Yes, it is absolutely shocking. Such a talented and witty person. What a loss.


He was such an interesting guy. Very sensitive and big hearted when you got to know him.

But his life was so amazing in a number of ways. He was African American, Lithuanian and Native American.

Graduated from high school at 16, and Northwestern Law at 22.

He hung around personally with guys like Arnie Duncan, Kwame Raoul and JB Pritzker.

If he graduated law school at 22 that puts him in his early 50's. Way too young. Must have been a real bad form of cancer. F cancer.

If his family posts a place to send donations to, can someone pin it up here?

Do it, and if anyone wants to meet in person to raise a glass, I'm there.

Extremely sad. Lot of political opinions that I disagreed with, but his sports thoughts were top notch.

For you RR

Man what a gut punch. I remember him referring at times to some struggles but did not realize it was to that level. He was a must read around here. I rarely agreed with him but loved to get his thoughts and loved to poke at him and he was always good to poke back.

RIP RR, you are a board legend in my book.

RR is in the middle, JORR is to the right, and Seacrest is behind the camera.
