    I saw a comment in a tweet chain saying he was probably vaxxed. Someone answered "he died of cancer, jackass."

    I had a cat who died because of a vaccine-induced* fibrosarcoma!


    *or so the pathology said

    I was surprised to learn he was still a Blazer fan. I wish they would have asked him his opinion of the current "ownership."

    I read in one of the obituaries that he tried to patch up his relationship with the Blazers within the last 15 years. On another thread someone posted a sign-off-bye video from the Pac-12 Network from Roxy Bernstein, who is one of the announcers. I would have really liked to listen to Walton do that video.

    Blaming the vax for everything is the only song they know. It's boring and it's slow. It really needs to go.

    Walton was so friendly, so genuine, and so thoughtful to other people I'm having a hard time thinking of any other athlete who would evoke such great professional and personal memories from so many people when he/she died.

    Peyton Manning, maybe.

    They're all troubled. Everybody's got problems. Everybody's got an attitude. Hail to the edgelords.

    I see from internet excerpts he's ragingly misogynistic and homophobic. Shocking
