[PopeDirkBenedict]

Holy ****.

 

[Cosmo]

Whoa. He had a beard that I always envied.

 

[trifectarich]

It's a bad week to be famous.

 

[kokane_muthashed]

Damn. Was his reality show wrapped up?

 

[2muchcoffeeman]

A ****load of commercials have to be pulled right away, I'd think.

Jeebus. Only 50.

 

[Simon_Cowbell]

I wonder if he banged his head with the rough jetliner landing.

 

[Simon_Cowbell]

Scary... I have no idea who that guy is.

 

[D-3 Fan]

This has been a bad week. The Grim Reaper, unfortunately, is making his $$$ this past week. McMahon, Fawcett, Jackson, Ed Thomas, and now Mays.

 

[PeteyPirate]

But wait, there's more! Just not for you, Billy.

 

[dreunc1542]

So weird. I played baseball with his son. And he was just on Conan this past week promoting his new show and was pretty funny.

 

[sportshack06]

I wonder if he banged his head with the rough jetliner landing.

He told a Tampa TV Station the following:

"All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."

What the heck is going on? All these famous people dropping like flies...

Since we already had three, are there going to be two more within the week?

 

[Some Guy]

Michael Jackson must have needed some Big City sliders and a bottle of Kaboom.

*That thought* hadn't dawned on me, but now that you've brought it up......

 

[imjustagirl]

Damn. I really liked the commercial he did for ESPN360 with the Kristen Wiig lookalike saying "Now my job is way less soulcrushing!"

Damn.

 

[D-Backs Hack]

But wait, there's more! Just not for you, Billy.

I'll cop to laughing at this. A lot.

 

[Matt1735]

If you act within the next 10 minutes, you can get two dead informercial pitchmen for the price of one. Just pay postage and handling.

 

[Pilot]

Guy died at the pinnacle of his popularity. Weird. Been a weird, weird week.

 

[txsportsscribe]

ok, they may be saying no foul play is suspected but does the shamwow guy have an alibi?
