In-a-Gadda-da-Vida had to be one of the best rock icon songs in history.  And if you were lit, it was even better....

[Nicole44 22030]

Genuinely sad. RIP.

This will end up being a political football no matter how his loved ones will feel about it.

Why would it become a "political football" unless random people on a Texas message board try to make it one?

[Hate 20104]

Damn…he’s literally the biggest Dead Head. I always enjoyed hearing about his impact on the 86 Celtics. He’s up there hanging out with Jerry, Keith, Brent, Pigpen, Hunter and Barlow.

Apparently, some sort of cancer.  I'm guessing he kept that information to close family and what not.  Sorry to hear that, he was a unique voice in sports.  

[Fudge Nuggets 19166]

Walton was annoying as shit as a player late in his career and equally annoying as an announcer early in his career.  But I have to admit I admired the shit out of the guy for his outlook on life.  He came across as a genuinely great person and would be a hell of a good dude to hang out with.

You must be a Rockets fan. Walton was great in 85-86.

Great player but watching a game with him doing color was unlistenable.

A good example was when he did the Texas game from China.

Horrible.

Jim Otto, the iconic center of the Oakland Raiders for 15 seasons, has passed away at the age of 86. The Raiders announced his death on Sunday night, May 19, without disclosing the cause.

Otto, an original Raider known for his distinct “00” jersey and remarkable durability, started with the team in its first season in the American Football League (AFL) in 1960 and remained until 1974. He holds a record of 210 continuous games, marking his dedication and tenacity. During his tenure with the Raiders, Otto received nine First-Team All-AFL honors and was chosen for the Pro Bowl three times after the AFL-NFL merger.
