    Precisely. Aka, Guilty until almost never proven innocent.

    I would not say his are unsubstantiated rumours, but instead major allegations.

    It's only fitting that we honor his memory accordingly by rising and respecting his singing of the Soviet National Anthem:

    TMZ seems to has sources she does not have long
    http://www.tmz.com/2018/08/13/aretha...ely-ill-dying/

    see the 958AM update at the top of the article.
    Today we sail
    On the Solar Rail
    For there's much we just don't know
    So farewell with a kiss
    Then it's fast for the mist
    Till we're sleeping in the cold below

    The family has asked folks to pray for her. Not long at all.

    PPatty, you should have picked another former pro wrestler: Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, 63, accidental (slipped and struck head at home):

    Given how hard he lived, I was mildly surprised that he was still alive.

    Well, we knew it was getting close, but it's still quite sad. Aretha Franklin has died at 76

    The DListed article on Miss Franklin, with tons of music clips in the article and in the comments:

    http://dlisted.com/2018/08/16/we-are...etha-franklin/

    The Nessun Dorma one is amazing. Start at 3:25 to skip to the "wow". That she even nailed the very end after being surprised on stage shows what a performer she was.

    DListed's description is a little deceptive. They talk about the time she replaced Pavarotti at almost the very last minute for the 1998 Grammys, but the clip they embed is a 2015 performance for the pope. Still great, but not quite as "Wow" as the 1998 one, given the circumstances.

    It's "wow" if you consider that's she's 73 in the 2015 clip.

    Again -- it's great. But there's a big difference between having a lot of time to study the play book, watch film and practice with the 1st team for a few weeks (2015), and suddenly coming out of the stands to run the 2-minute drill because the quarterback went down on the sidelines as he was putting on his helmet to go into the game (1998).
