And some forums/posters keep going on about what a loss it is. Why? Because he was famous?

No, because he was very, very funny.

Maybe you didn't like a lot of his routines or his take on God, etc. Me too, but when he was funny he was HILARIOUS. I challenge you to watch the difference between football and baseball and not laugh.

You may not care about that. Well, fine, but to some of us comedy is an art like music or painting. And while I admit I don't agree with a lot of what he had to say, he was a comedic virtuoso. He was one of the first to skewer the politically correct, liberal and conservative alike. And for this I thank him, and hope his troubled soul found peace at long last.

I watched it and didn't laugh. Like I said, he wasn't that funny.
