December 2, 20241 yr Heard from a patient that Toni Price had an aneurysm a few weeks ago and passed. Y'all may not know her but she was pretty big in the Austin music scene back in the day. But, like a lot of musicians, had a substance abuse problem that caught up to her.

It felt like ESPN had a colossal Bkg East game every other night, or the ACC did. I concede that I was 12-13, and couldn’t get enough of college basketball at the time. You are not wrong. The 80’s was the Golden Era of college basketball.

December 3, 20241 yr 5 hours ago, Hate said: You are not wrong. The 80’s was the Golden Era of college basketball. Over the weekend between football games I went on a YouTube binge of watching old NCAA basketball highlights from my youth. I determined that in my opinion the most exciting era was from the 1981-1982 season through the 1990-1991 season. The era started with Phi Slamma Jamma and ended with the great UNLV team. The Big East certainly played a big role in that time frame. Man there were some squads during that span.

One of his first roles on film was alongside Lee Van Cleef in The Big Combo where they played gay hitmen. Pretty salty roles to slip by censors of the day. I just saw this movie recently on Noir Alley. Great film. He was also the star in the very first Twilight Zone episode and was great. RIP

Man that guy was one of the greatest athletes in American sports history. I vividly remember watching the A’s as a child with Rickey leading the way for them. So much talent on that 89 team, but he was still the best of them all. RIP Rickey. Edited December 21, 20241 yr by UpperWestside

December 28, 2024Dec 28 She will forever be my Juliet. My 16 year-old self didn't care that this movie was already 15 or 20 years old when I saw it in high school, although I was annoyed that the nude scenes were cut. By the time we saw it in class, it had taken on this mythology that was insane and didn't live up to the hype. I never could find the VHS of this in high school, either from Blockbuster or to buy. She was hot in Black Christmas, and was one of those types who got hotter the older they got. Did get a copy of Black Christmas on VHS taped off of one of the movie channels.

Our viewing in the early 90s was not edited....it was a very special day for all of us dudes in that class. Margie Kleinheur didn't give a FUCK and for that I salute her.
