I loved Meadowlark.

RIP big guy!

Loved him, too.

I'm finding myself saying, "What? He died already? What? He was that old already?" a lot lately when someone famous dies. Time is flying, I guess.

Henderson was a big boy and swung a big bat back in the day. 57 is way too early to go.

I am having difficulty believing Meadowlark is gone

I mean if any dude was going to kick the bucket and then you find out later that the bucket was full of confetti, it is him

Ha, nice tribute NBT. RIP Meadowlark.

[ghandi]

He made basketball fun....RIP

[Newbomb Turk]

He provided all the inspiration for WCF to model the Lions after the lovable losers (Washington Generals)

Saw Meadowlark and the Globetrotters when we went with the school in the seventies. Was at that cynical age, absolutely enjoyed it, still got my ticket and program somewhere. RIP.

Man, Henderson was far too young. He was in CF for the Red Sox during their game 6 meltdown vs the Mets in '86. Think he caught the 2nd out before the rally. And rip Meadowlark Lemon. He was a top 10 favorite athlete of my youth.

Time is flying, cells are dying.

That's life
