Leonard Nimoy has announced plans to beam himself out of showbiz.

"Countless times, I thought it was done," the 79-year-old actor tells the 'Toronto Sun'.

"I want to get off the stage. Also, I don’t think it would be fair to Zachary Quinto," referring to the actor who portrayed a young Spock in the 'Star Trek' reboot. "He’s a terrific actor, he looks the part, and it’s time to give him some space. And I’m very flattered the character will continue."

---

In other words, don’t expect to see Nimoy in the 'Star Trek' sequel, scheduled for 2012.

He just also wrapped up filming his final appearance as enigmatic genius Dr. William Bell on 'Fringe'.

Live long and prosper Mr. Nimoy...

To be honest, I'm not surprised. He looked very, very aged in the last ST movie and in interviews I've seen (it looked like he had some bad cataracts).

He has looked that way for 20 years...

Glad to see I was able to use this so quickly.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
