    HOF as a player and a coach.

    John Robert Wooden is a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame as both a player (Class of 1961) and a coach (Class of 1973)

    Washington Post is reporting that he has passed on. Godspeed.

    It looks like they post too quick:

    It's official. He's passed. :(

    I knew he was up there in age, but didn't know he was 99

    Nelson Stokely passed. Not that much of a "celebrity" but still well known in these parts.

    They're dropping like flies. :shock:

    im going to take simon cowell and michael j fox coming back from a strip club in vegas. will be caused by simon being so drunk he decides letting mjf driving his bentley is a better idea.

    will not end well.

    ill also take bb king and fats domino in a head-on collision but both will die instantly from a heart attack.
