Rowdy Roddy Piper dead at 61

RIP Hot Rod

Cardiac arrest in his sleep.  One of my all time favorite entertainers.

"Just when you think you have all the answers, I change the question"

One of the best lines ever uttered in professional wrestling.

"I am here to kick ass and chew bubble gum.  And I am all out of bubble gum"

One of the funniest and most memorable lines in cinematic history

RIP

Awful news. Rest in peace, Roddy. I was browsing the Network just two days ago and decided on Piper-Hogan from Starrcade '96. What a legend.

Finding out Hogan is a total poo bag this week kinda sucked, too.

I watched WM3 on the Network the other day. Like 60% of those guys are dead now. Awful

Wow only 61.

He outlived the life expectancy of a pro wrestler by about 10 years.

Doing steroids and pumping your body full of pain killers so you can slam your body around 4-5 days a week for 20+ years is pretty taxing on the human body.

Those guys drop like flies in their 40/50s.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
