Earl Bruce - The man that could show you the right and proper way to wear a hat.   Great coach did not like the time it took and plus other reasons was not a great recruiter, but the man could coach to win.

The name was Earle.  Seems like that name goes better with the hats!

I hate to say it but every time I see him I get a bad feeling about John Goodman. He’ll be 66 in a couple months and just looks to be big as fuck. 

We talking about the same John Goodman?  I saw him in an interview recently, looks thinner then he did on Roseanne.  Not saying he's in the best of shape, but it's better than it was.

Good for him. Some of those older episodes of Roseanne he looks like a monster. 

Yeah, John Goodman looks to be aging well. I hope that's a good sign, the man is a national treasure.

Belly was his coach, I believe.

Speaking of baseball, this guy was a versatile member of the Bucco's pitching staff during their great years in the '70's

Bruce Kison, the lanky right-hander who was part of two Pittsburgh Pirates World Series-winning teams in 1971 and 1979, died Saturday at the age of 68.

Kison was the winning pitcher in the first night game in World Series history -- Game 4 in 1971 against the Baltimore Orioles -- in which he threw 6 1/3 scoreless innings of one-hit relief. 

A rookie that year, Kison went on to pitch nine seasons for the Pirates. He also started the opening game of the 1979 World Series against the Orioles and finished his career with a 5-1 record and 1.98 ERA in 10 postseason appearances, including four starts.

Damn, that's crazy. Loved watching his shows on TV.

Bourdain really sucks, as I love to travel. I watched his shows and he had some places that I now have on my bucket list because of it. Places I would’ve never dreamed of wanting to go, let alone trying to make it a point to explore before I die.

Wow. That's a surprising one. 

Fuck. :(

I always assumed Bourdain had substance abuse problems, not sure if true at all. But I always got that vibe. Regardless, that sucks. His shows were awesome.

Pretty sure he’s a recovering drug addict. Heroin and all. Thought I read he’s been clean for a while, but has been battling depression. 

Mental illness is a fucking bitch. My fiancé is a therapist in that field. The shit she deals with is insane. It’s a national epidemic that we don’t really acknowledge.
