RIP Nick Charles

[adminbaberuth]

Lost the battle with Cancer.

One of the first cable sports anchors.

[Guest beechnut]

I seen that Ruth and one of my favorite chaps early on in the sports scenes on cable. He and Fred H were the first to come up with the late night gig. Came on at ten thirty five each night and went toe to toe with the Ladies at Espn. RIP Nick you will be missed.

Quotes from Nick Charles...

His message on the challenges in life, he said, is to "never give up on life."

[i][b]"It's an imperfect world, but, boy, it's still beautiful."[/b][/i]

"What is life?" he said. "It's 20 percent what happens to you and 80 percent how you react to it."

"Find that little kernel every day that brings you pleasure and joy -- and fasten onto that. That's what's going to make life worth living. Always look for the best."
