    Canada’s best Actor, Christopher Plummer. 91. I got to meet him briefly at the Stratford festival about 20 years ago, he was the gentlemen’s gentlemen. And had the most steel-grip handshake Id ever encountered.

    I fucking love this movie, and especially this scene:

    If you want Cinderella stories, him beating a prime Ali for the title has to be one of the biggest upsets ever.

    He was also the most punchdrunk man on earth. His interviews were heartbreaking at times because he wore brain damage like it was a Halloween mask.

    Why he never got another coaching job in the NFL after getting fired by the Chargers is beyond me. Yes, he had some crushing losses in the playoffs, but he turned every team he coached into a winner.

    He did all of that. While being named Larry. It’s like being born jinxed, the man crushed it.

    His constant battle and humiliation of Jerry Falliwell will always put him higher in heaven than that fat fuck. And he outlived him and won again.

    Although I’ve never been into that type of jazz, he was a true music visionary and virtuoso. He and Herbie Hancock were probably the biggest jazz pianists of their era.

    And he’s probably still a lock for the next Instrumental Jazz Grammy.

    What does he have, two dozen? At that point I’d tip the pizza delivery boy with one.

    It's almost like being a dick and short-term fad has long term consequences.

    Everyone's fault but his own, of course.

    I'm more concerned that people in their 40s are making another Jackass movie.
