Have you been living under a rock, or are you failing at being amusing.
There's more than one?
He sure as hell will here in Michigan!

He was nothing more than a photogenic thug who was good at two things: boxing and shooting off his mouth.
Now that he has met Christ and actually seen the Eternal One who is The Greatest, and has been judged by Him, he has all of eternity to suffer the consequences of his misguided choices.
Yeah, he (Ali) was great but I liked Jimi Hendrix a lot better.
thats about the time I posted this
I kept hearing how he changed ALL of our lives.
Didn’t do crap for mine
Ali was drafted by his country during a shooting war. He refused to serve. In doing so, he pushed worthier men into the line of fire.
Ali argued that as a newly converted Muslim, it was against his religion to fight outside the ring - a religion of peace and all. U.S. Supreme Court members - who avidly read the polling data - said Ali was absolutely right; ruled in his favor.
Ali was a sports/celebrity entertainer that could attract media attention. Anyone near him could get some spotlight thrown their way. That was mighty important back then - and today.
Cosell and Ali were made for each other.
Not to me he wasn’t.
He became a hero the second hew died.
Before that, no one gave a crap about him.
“I think he was two parts showman and one part sadist.”
I don’t get the “sadist” part but...whatever.
And an even bigger affront to those who DIED for America in that war.
I take it he changed your life.I am happy for you.
When is the final round?
Ask Ernie Terrell...
I watched about 2 minutes of this sickening spectacle. The RATs turned Ali’s funeral into a political rally for Hillary. Bill Clinton was in the front row laughing it up with Billy Crystal.
Too many remarks about bridges vs walls.
Typical liberal love fest.
Well, I honestly could not care about him anymore than I care about Gordie Howe.
They were very good at their jobs, for a good part of their lives. You and I probably know people who are just as good at their jobs, but they aren’t on TV.
In the end, they were old sick men. Just as you and I will be someday.
I think your attempt at humor was just poor. It feeds the meme that cons reactive are racists. When really we are just old and cranky.
