Rest in Peace Hank Aaron and Larry King

Two Titans of their select vocations have passed away in the prior 24 hours.

Hammerin' Hank Aaron, MLB's long time Home Run King and legend of the Atlanta/Milwaukee Braves Organization passed January 22/2021 and the outpouring of support has been tremendous. But whenever there is a tragedy, the Social Justice Warriors won't be far behind. They have launched a WILDLY successful petition to have the Atlanta Braves organization change their name to the 'Hammers' because of that ever so problematic Native American Slur? of the Braves. It's so stupid that I would imagine that Major League Baseball would consider it.

Larry King, legendary in both the realms of Marriage and Broadcast passed earlier today (January 23/2021) after being hospitalized earlier in the month. There is no more influential broadcaster than King as he was the standard bearer in the Interview genre. While he may have slipped in some peoples eyes in the past few years, there is no better framework he provided for young broadcasters to emulate into the future.

God Speed to the two legends.
