My baseball and overall sports hero, Ryne Sandberg, passed away today at the age of 65.

RIP Ryno

Wow
How did he turn 65??

Sandberg announced in January 2024 that he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. He had chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and then said in August 2024 that he was cancer-free. But he posted on Instagram on Dec. 10 that his cancer had returned and spread to other organs.

I heard Cal superfan and Rhetoric professor, and recent Berkeley Citation winner, Nad Permaul, passed away today.

RIP

Go Bears Forever


Before Bear Insider and Greybear's Cyberbears Growls, Nad was the original Cal sports online content creator, with the GoBears email newsletter which came out in the early 90s.



RIP Nad.

I very much remember those days and those posts.

I knew Nad when I was an undergrad and I think he was a grad, but it's been many years. Great guy; great Golden Bear. Is it confirmed that he passed away?

When you realize she wasn't a blonde, that she was that old (79!).

John Tyler, the 10th president of the United States, was born in 1790 and served as president from 1841 to 1845.

His last living grandson died over the weekend.

Nice add to this thread.
Though, I hope the late Mr Tyler doesn't take that personally.

He should have knocked up some women before kicking the bucket to ensure the family tradition.

Daguerreotype by Edward Anthony and Jonas M. Edwards. Found in America's Affluent Age (1971) p. 94, by Floyd Rinhart, a historian of early American photography. Corroborated by an entry from the diary of John Quincy Adams, who was present at the studio the same day. Taken more than 15 years before the two more popular surviving photos of Tyler.

George Raveling. Head basketball coach at Washington St, USC, Iowa. He was a character!
What I recall most was after his coaching days, he was the color guy on whatever network broadcasted Pac10 games and he went nuts watching Shareef Abdur-Raheem play for Cal. When he'd score, Raveling could only say, "RAHEEEEEEEEM!!!!!".
