As someone who owns his autobiography, Jim Brown is the person that Colin Kaepernick wishes he was. Even with his off field antics regarding his domestic abuse scandals, he literally was the pure form of civil rights activism to a tee.

If anything, it says a lot that not even O.J. Simpson can step in Jim's shoes.

Damn I can't believe I missed that Jim Brown died


Also holy shit Ray Stevenson is the second actor that I didn't expect to die this year. 58 is still very young to die.
 
Say what you want about punisher warzone but Ray made that movie. While Thomas Jane had the best voice ray had the silent, brutal, force. He was like mickey Rourke playing Marv in sin city before him. he WAS the punisher...the garth ennis max version at least.
 
Tina Turner was pretty much The Diva with class and thick thighs. I don't really see many of today's female entertainers matching the scope and talent that she possessed.

Still, it will be funny to see if she witnesses Ike Turner's ghost in the afterlife.
