RIP Eddie

If this is a repost sorry, checked the first two pages and did not see a thread.

The repost police will be along shortly Jim.

That's because nobody really cares about him I guess. I posted this and shared a quick bit about my friend who had a chance to meet with him - it fell to page two within hours.

Jim, check your eye, Please ? UCLA fans are suppose to be perfect...........

Someone has now bumped your thread to the front page, maybe it will have a better chance today. They really just got around to really putting it on TV a lot this morning.

I never heard of him. I wonder why he never jumped to usc or smewhere where more talent.
