RIP

One of the all-time great NBA centers.

Left-handed, size 18 shoes and relentless, even with bad knees. Kareem used to talk about how completely physically drained he’d be after playing against Lanier.

Fred Ward in Miami Blues is one of the great performances in film.

The dinner scene where he’s interrogating Junior (Alec Baldwin) is a masterpiece.

So bummed, one of my favorite actors ever.

RIP

Fred Ward should’ve been a big movie star. Charismatic, ruggedly handsome, funny, and as authentic as any actor ever was. Instead, he became one of those character actors who enlivens every movie he was in. Just brilliant in every way. RIP Fred.

RIP Fred Ward, he was awesome. Tremors is an all-time classic.

The great Roger Angell at 101. Perhaps the finest baseball writer ever.

I wasn't fully aware that Roger Angell was still alive. He was a great writer and a great fan. The fun part of reading him is that you can tell he loved the game.

He wrote a short piece on box scores. My ex-wife found it in an Angell collection in a thrift shop and gave it to me. I read it and forever knew I wasn't alone.

That's what great writers do. Emerson said something along the lines of great writers seem to make our own thoughts return to us with a heightened majesty.

Strangely enough, James Baldwin, who I don't always get along with, said he felt irrevocably alone until he read Dostoevsky.

jesus christ, what is it about the age 67? So many stars die at that age, it seems.

Too damn young.

He could steal a movie with just his striking looks, or just his voice, or just his weird laugh. Only one Ray Liotta!

As well as all his obviously great stuff I loved him in Narc and Point of Origin.

If you told me that one of the main 3 from Goodfellas died I would have not guessed him

RIP
