Way to stay classy.

Talking on the internet about some random person I've never met has nothing to do with class.

Understand; you wouldn't know class if it hit you upside the head like a Louisville Slugger. And I love how you're passing judgment and making disparaging comments about a person you've never met.

 

What a POS...

This is the biggest celebrity death of my life time. There has been no other of greater influence than him that has passed away. I watched him as a kid and grew up with his work. I thought of him as like one of the grandfathers of comedy. And not only as a comedian/actor, but I liked him as a person as well. No other can match him.

Dude, you're being ridiculous. Have some fugging respect. Yes, none of us knew him personally but he's been in all of our lives for a very long time. I can only hope that random strangers want to remember me after I pass.

I won't and yes I will out live you

Depression is a bitch. Have seen it take a couple of people really close to me (including former students--now that's a kick in the teeth).

 

Robin Williams was incredibly talented, as many have said here. I personally think his dramatic acting was underrated but maybe hard for some to take him seriously because he was just so incredibly crazy in his wound up comedic stylings.

 

If you haven't seen his early stuff when he was on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, do yourself a favor and look it up. Carson was the king, and he couldn't handle Williams.  It was pretty much just throw out the script, and some of the best late night moments in TV history.

 

RIP Robin.

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
