yeah, they say natural causes, but 66 is way to young for natural causes

thank its possible any of today's big players will make it to that age? he was massive for his time at 6'7 285.

A very high percentage of Bubbas die at that age.

RIP.

Welcome back Ras.

Bubba was a good player and a monster for his time. Also a great comedian when paired with Butkus.

Outside of Ueck, he has the best line of those commercials.

"I had my own way of tackin'; I used to grab the whole backfield, then I threw guys out until I found the one with the ball."

God I feel old watching this.

Whoaa.

Big Bubba had to die to bring back Rasta Kyle?

Bubba was a great player and a funny guy. He had an awful SBIII, John Schmitt among others kicked his ass. Then he always maintained the game was fixed. Have a light beer for me, Big Bubba, wherever you are.

I once said in a Chris Henry thread that he was 'dead' and the former proprietor sent me a private message telling me to knock it off. Like saying someone is 'dead' was against forum rules or something.

Maybe you should consider letting go and moving on and quit being a crybaby. I think Bubba would like that insteading wimping up his thread.
