I read in another article on his death that they're waiting on toxicology, so drug OD is suspected.
Tom Dempsey, the kicker with half a foot who could boom the ball, dies of Covid-19. Was a fan of his when I was a kid, straight on with half a foot, he was awesome.

I confess that when I see "Linda Tripp" the first thing that comes to mind is John Goodman playing her on SNL.
Take a moment for the passing of someone who left a very deep mark on popular culture. If nothing else, Mort Drucker surely is one of the most widely disseminated satirists ever:
Mad magazine cartoonist Mort Drucker dies at 91
What always stuck with me the most was the way his caricatures were always instantly recognizable as their subjects, even though he gave all of them the same set of pursed lips.
I loved Mad Magazine growing up. I bought every issue during my junior high and high school years. His drawings were a big part of the appeal
Was going to post this if no one had. I know most on this site will disagree, but Mad Magazine, for me, is the best comic books ever. Mort Drucker was a big reason for that, too.

I went ahead and bought a year long subscription for my kids, today. Only 5 bucks for the whole year, too!
Even over here we got "MAD"

Don't blue ball us like that. You know this is a publicity stunt. They're going to spin his surgery some bullshit that the virus is designed to destroy the weak and make the peril intuitive gods. You watch. He'll come walking around in white and strut 40 pounds less.
2 options:
1 - Tinthalas is right and he's BSing us so he can be the supreme leader that kicked the virus' ass
2 - He's so sick that he doesn't realize this news was released, because you know there's no way he'd allow that unless #1 was true
Several outlets reporting he is dead now. But some saying he's in a vegetative state. Apparently, he was having a stent put in and it went wrong. Man, I would hate to be the surgeon that botched that job...
The man who inspired the character of Nuke LaLoosh has gone by the wayside:
Steve Dalkowski, hard-throwing pitcher and one of baseball's greatest what-if stories, dies at 80
