From Plague's first point he's right:
But the thread went at a different tangent and we have been talking about commentators synonymous with their sport.Quote:
You'd obviously put Richie Benaud in the same bowl but prob no other media figure repped their sport better yeah
And I well remember Vince M being a commentator through the 80's before he bought the major stake and made his family the Osbourne's of wrestling.
No, my point was great.Quote:

Which, by the way, is a brilliant trick the Member routinely pulls off but I'm too #woke for that.
i ruined it by mentioning good ol' JR
We really need a wrestling thread so we can discuss the greatest professional wrestler of all time.

Mike Cockerill has passed away after a battle with cancer
Hugh Hefner has died
Only bloke in the world where no one will say he has now gone to a better place now he has died
Bloke was literally living the dream with his bevy of sluts on a daily basis
He was a great man and one of the loudest voices for civil rights long before it became popular.Quote:

Now he is - RIP.
George Young died the other day - he was 70 years old. Responsible for some great songs and helped to put Aussie Rock on the map. Great guitarist as well - some classic riffs.

Only just heard about this last night - as a major Australian songwriter and producer and eldest of the Young brothers I thought there would be more coverage.
Always liked this one:

Wonderful man and musician. A true legend and a great role model for us all.
Malcolm Young has passed away. One of the greatest guitarists in history and a true innovator as well who influenced millions of guitarist all over the world.
A very tough time for the Young family given they also recently lost George as well.
