Damn, I didn't think the grim reaper was tough enough to take out ole Chuck. In the end though, death comes for us all, even the toughest of us.

Ted Turner has passed. Should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

I feel the same. I don't typically think anything of these older athletes/celebs when they go, but when I saw this one, I actually sighed. The nostalgia of the 90s Braves and all the games in the nosebleeds my parents took us to, and then remember the time we got to be in good seats when there was a $90 family special for the Lexus section. For kids and teenagers growing up in the south, those 90s Braves were just special.

As a diehard Braves fan losing those two back to back really does hurt.

My favorite Ted Turner move (Aside from managing a couple of games) was when they signed Andy Messersmith from the Dodgers.
Declared that his nickname was "Channel" and gave him number 17. Hence back of the jersey read Channel 17 (Original TBS)

One of my favorite "I was there..." moments- I got to witness Barry Bonds extend his career home run record and Bobby Cox set the career ejections record in the same game. August 15, 2007. Braves won 6-3.
