OT: Anthony Mason has died

[rurahrah000]

Sad to see one of my all time favorite knick pass away. Oakley, Ewing and Mason down low was a pleasure to watch. Still remember the one handed free throws. Tough day for knick fans from the 90's.

Antony Mason

RIP Mase - truly one of a kind

 

[RutgersUnion]

Was a fan favorite. He really let himself go after his career was over. Definitely sad to see him go.

RIP Mase - I will never forget those Knick teams. Him, along with Oakley and Ewing, is the reason why I'm a Knicks fan. That was a killer and hardnose frontcourt.

RIP. Was a lot of fun to watch. From a story on him: "Vecsey reported that Mason had reached 350 pounds, had been dealing with
heart problems for the past year, and was at a New York-area hospital
undergoing tests when the heart attack occurred, prompting him to be
rushed into surgery."

 

[Doctor Worm]

He could guard Michael Jordan one night and Hakeem Olajuwon the next. A rare breed indeed.

Rip

RIP Mase, a physical player. Knicks could use a few Masons now. Thanks for the memories, only 48.

Reminds me of what Rex Ryan's doctor asked to him: How many people you know over 300 pounds and over 50 yo ?

RIP, Those years were the last time the knicks were watchable.

 

[KingHigh]

Mixed feelings on this. One of my favorites on the court. He had a very evil side off the court.

 

[Fishky]

Good player liked him when he was with the Knicks.

 

[RU31trap]

Great memories of Anthony Mason. May he RIP

 

[RU MAN]

RIP. I loved his tenacity. I didn't realize he had ballooned to that weight. Sad.

 

[SouthFLRUfan]

Did you two just wake from your spring/ summer nap?

How was he evil?

 

[Ru2bnj]

These former NBA players are really dropping all over the place....at very young ages....50s . They must really be letting themselves go after basketball. Sad.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

One of my all-time favorite Knicks. Very sad way too young. That being said he passed away in February.

No need for nonsense in threads like this WTF???

 

[Ridge 22]

WTF is going on? This happened months ago. How did this get resurrected?

 

[RUaMoose]

I hear Bob Menendez was indicted.

 

[MozRU]

WTF?? this thread is back?

This board has become bizarro world.

Next we're going to see a thread from 13yrs ago about us in ESPN's bottom 10 and about to play another bottom 10 in the barf bowl.

OH MY F'n GOD!!!!! We have that thread and it's not from 13yrs ago!

 

[Saint Puppy]

Great memories of Anthony Mason. May he RIP

The last response to this thread was 6 months ago....so you literally had to dig it up and post it again....I can't see this as any other thing than trolling - if it's not then please explain.

 

[RUhasarrived]

Sometime in 2011,someone posted that Boom Boom Geoffrion had died.Since that happened in 2006,I brought that up to the poster.Maybe whoever brought this back is the same poster.

 

[KingHigh]

How was he evil?

In the rapey sort of sense.

 

[RutgersUnion]

Again?

 

[DJ Spanky]

Great memories of Anthony Mason. May he RIP

Why did you bump a thread from over 6 months ago?

I honestly don't know. My home computer got a virus and I did a system restore. Could this have brought threads up from past? My I-phone shows the most recent threads but my home computer is living in the past. Any suggestions to fix it are welcome.

There's something wrong with my home computer. I had to do a system restore and for some reason it brought up old threads. I didn't bother looking at the dates. I'll be more careful next time.

 

[GSGS]

Mase died again? - damn, he's had a tough year!

 

[mikershoein]

Shit, just heard that john Lennon was shot, wtf

 

[jerzey devil]

Holy Crap!!! President Lincoln was just shot at Fords theather!!!! Still waiting to find out who the assassin is!!! May take 6 months..but I'll wait!!

 

[ScarletteK80]

On a happier note, Larry Johnson, and Alan Houston were at MSG tonight to witness the NY Liberty beat the Washington Mystics. Move on to next round of playoffs tomorrow(Wednesday). Hopefully our own Epiphanny Prince, and Essence Carson can come up BIG!!!

As a learning experience, don't let yourself go like that. It is a surefire way prescription to die early.

That made me laugh

Ouch - the wonderful world of computers....of course the resurrection of this thread seems to have made the natives happy (which is tough to do these days)
