Bill Russell died today.

I was recently listening to a podcast where they were talking about NBA players not living long due to their size and cardiovascular health. One of the host then mentioned Bill Russell and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as a counter point. Little to no relevance but a little nugget.

 

RIP to a legendary player.

She deserves her own thread... those original shows were a must watch growing up, made lost in space look kind of stupid.

I forgot how the series ended. Were they ever found in space? Was Dr. Smith ever convicted of those child molestation charges?

Never found. :(

Dr. Smith was clean, but Sulu from Star Trek was not. :(
