RIP Gene Wilder

We need folks like Gene, Robin, Jonathan Winters, John Candy, Richard Pryor -- beautifully funny, slightly mad people that look like you and me, but are adored by everyone. In them, we see the best and bravest parts of ourselves, making fun of life and thumbing our noses at Death itself. That's why it hurts more when they pass, they take a little of us with them when they go.

I'm not sure how many people on here are old enough to remember "The Electric Company", a classic children's show that used to follow Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers Neighborhood on PBS.

But if you are old (like me) and you do remember the show, I wonder if you were aware that Gene Wilder provided the voice for this guy:

Electric-Company-The-Adventures-of-Lette

 

Yep. Gene Wilder was "Letter Man".

I confess I didn't know till now.

    • The teams this 2nd year player (can’t really blame the years before he was drafted on him) was playing were going 100% as most do most weeks in the NFL. The whole argument is about his play during that period and how well was he actually playing. I’m with you on the winning though. Just start winning and fans will get excited. Start getting in the playoffs and winning and we won’t care how his PFF or box score stats look. 200 yards a game to 400 yards a game, start scoring and winning playoffs games and 99% of fans will buy in. 
    • Yeah, we are gonna be raw.  Wonnum, for the past 3 years, has been averaging 8 sacks a season (4 in one season when he missed half a season).  I am OK, but yes, they will be thrown to the fire.
    • I like this because it means one or both of the rookies will be thrust into a bigger role right away and we can see what they might be. I don't like this because it just makes our team that much younger and inexperienced.  You need vets to help the young guys learn, I just hope we aren't going too far in the opposite direction.  All our FA signings were guys just coming off their rookie deals too, I get why we're doing it, but having the savvy vets help in other ways too.
