The Greatest Champion: NBA legend Bill Russell dead at 88
Bill Russell played for the Boston Celtics during his NBA career and won 11 titles.

Bill Russell, one of the greatest basketball players of all time who led the charge on and off the court, has died, his family announced Sunday. He was 88.

Russell’s family said in a statement that he passed away "peacefully" with his wife by his side. It was unclear how Russell died.

"It is with a very heavy heart we would like to pass along to all of Bill’s friends, fans & followers," the statement started.

Nichelle Nichols, ‘Star Trek’s’ Lt. Uhura, dead at 89

RIP

Hard to believe she was 89.

Koenig, Takei and Shatner the only regulars left.

Was looking through some of the memorable others and the ones I looked up were all deceased. Kevin Riley, Harry Mudd, etc.

Only other people from the full cast that I checked that were still alive were David Ross (Lt. Galloway-played on 9 episodes) and Billy Blackburn who was never credited. He played various extras in 68 episodes. Hard to believe Yeoman Rand was only on 8 episodes. Nobody else who appeared in more than 4 episodes was still alive.

It's hard to believe, but I mean these folks I lived very long longs. She was 89 years ago. Shatner is 91, and Takei and Koenig are 85. All those minor characters would be similar ages if still alive. Father Time is undefeated.

From what I heard, Grace Lee Whitney was fired and they claimed it was her drug abuse, but from what I understand, Gene was a pervert to work with, and he would give her extra screen time and all that if she sleep with him. That is what I heard that led to her drug abuse. Gene was shacking up at the time with Majel and they were not married at the time.

Gene Roddenberry was a notorious skirt-chaser and according to many an a-hole, but Whitney said it wasn’t him. She wrote in her memoirs it was someone else (but did not give a name).

Also it wasn’t drug abuse, she was an alcoholic (and remained one afterwards). According to her memoir, after she sobered up she apologized to Gene for her drinking and he casted her in Star Trek III-VI.

RE: New Grim Reaper Death Thread
Back when Sirius-XM first came out, Astros were playing at Dodgers and I tuned in to the Dodger feed because I would rather listen to Scully than Milo, any day. Anyway, Craig Biggio came up to bat. To set the stage, I have been a huge Astros fan since the Colt .45 days, Biggio has always been one of my all-time favorite Astros, and I have even met him a couple of times through our mutual friend, the late and great Frankie Mandola. In the course of that one plate appearance, Scully told me four things about Craig Biggio that I had never known before.

Perhaps at the other end of the preparation scale, I may have heard the one time that Scully got caught unprepared. I was in Long Beach for my two-week Naval Reserve duty, and driving back from lunch at the O-club, I had the Dodger game on the radio. They used to (may still) have some "businessmen's special" weekday home games that started at noon. Being LA/Hollywood, a number of the businessmen attending were motion picture executives, and in the hope of being discovered, a number of aspiring starlets would show up in various stages of undress and try to attract attention. Coming back from a mid-inning advert/station break, Scully is describing in great detail the antics of one such (apparently very attractive) starlet on top of the visiting dugout. All of a sudden, he exclaims, "I must apologize, my friends, Steve Garvey has apparently just hit a home run, because he is jogging around the bases, and I did not see the play. But I can assure you, had you been in my place, you would have been watching that starlet, too."
