RIP Jake LaMotta

[Steak Snabler]

so says TMZ:

 

[QYFW]

Threw many people through windows.

 

[DanielSimpsonDay]

Knew how he liked his steak.

 

[bigpern23]

I'm stunned he hadn't died decades ago. Had no idea he was still alive.

 

[typefitter]

He definitely had the Keith Richards unkillable gene.

 

[Evil ... Thy name is Orville Redenbacher!!]

So his (ex) wife posed for Playboy at the age of 51.

Cathy Moriarty didn't do her justice.

She also wrote a book that wasn't published until after her death. I'll be trying to track down a copy of "Knockout"

 

[Riptide]

So his (ex) wife posed for Playboy at the age of 51.

That was one hot cougar spread, too. My friend said.

I have that issue. Your, uh, friend is right.

 

[CD Boogie]

please take this to the "have you ever been in a fight?" thread.

 

[Evil ... Thy name is Orville Redenbacher!!]

I have that issue. Your, uh, friend is right.

Read somewhere that was the best selling issue of all-time.

Heavy silicone shaping. Just sayin'.

 

[Huggy]

Heavy silicone shaping. Just sayin'.

Philistine.

They looked like a pair of boulders straight from Bedrock.

LaMotta's distinction, which even today's obit stressed, was that he was the only subject of a sports biography film that was also a great film. I don't know how he really felt about the picture, though I met him when he was actually doing promos for it on a tour in Boston, but I hope he was grateful to DiNiro.
