A Sad Day for Comedy

I loved his "Baseball vs. Football" schpeal. It was hilarious for a sports afficionado like me.
In football, the goal is for hte quarterback, a.k.a. the "field general" to attack the opposing defense with his arial assault to lead his forces into enemy territory with short bullet passes and deep bombs with a solid ground attack to weaken the opposing force's line of defense.
In baseball, the goal is to go HOME, and be SAFE. I'm safe at home!

I lol'ed so hard at that.

He was 71? He looked like he was 60! (Of course, he always looked like he was 60.)

He set the standard for comedians like Richard Pryor and Louis Black.

George's thoughts on death. I guess we have to hold onto his adress for six weeks.

Never heard of him, but it souds like he was good.

If here, tSRMB, and 4chan each had threads on this, this guy must have been pretty darn good.

Is it a bad thing I've never heard of him? D:
Very. You people are either horridly sheltered or just too darn young.

Or we don't like comedy that much.

If your were alive at the time, pretty much everyone knew of the 7 Things You Can't Say on Television bit.
