Evel Knievel Finally Crashes to Earth in Heap, Can't Get Up
Topic: Sports

Oh the undisputed irony of watching Ocean's Thirteen at the exact moment when Don Cheadle walks into Pacino's office dressed as an Evel Knievel clone and opening Fox Sports only to read that the greatest daredevil of all time has passed away at the age of 69.

The psychotic lothario who was known for his strange ability to get up after smashing his entire body into anything possible could not beat old age and multiple diseases, including pulmonary fibrosis and diabetes.  But now, the man who inspired a whole slew of imitators, including those in television shows such as The Simpsons and two feature films about his life, cannot get up one last time.

In honor of this great man, we will be ordering his signature shot, the "Red, White & Blue," when we hit the bar later tonight.  We would recommend that you do the same, except for the possibility that drinking amateurs would die a horrific death at the hands of one of the most gawdawful concoctions ever mixed in a shot glass.
