Wasn't really my point, seeing as he's been dead more than 20 years, but sure.

He Was in SF on Saturday with Michael Milken for their annual prostate cancer awareness campaign. Really surprised he didn't coordinate this heart attack for the Fox cameras.

Hope his doctors are good.

He has a heart?

"So, Tommy, what was your opinion of those chest pains."

An old hack told me once that there were three guys he covered who had the largest gaps between their public personae and the assholes they actually were: Lee Trevino, Jim Valvano and Lasorda.

I would love to see the outtakes from The Baseball Bunch.

I always figured there was a reason they didn't shoot Lasorda's scenes on-site with the kids.

Who is the fourth on that Mount Rushmore?

Nah, he's been known as a douchebag for awhile.

Maybe Tommy got one too many blumpkins.

"mild" heart attack. At 84, I don't think there's any such thing as a "mild" heart attack.

Love Gibby's comments.

"He's had a couple [attacks] before, so he's in New York for the draft and probably went out and pounded a huge meal, and went down,"
"I've eaten several meals with him, so I know what it's like. I felt like I was having a heart attack after eating with him as well."

Wow.
