30 years of Parkinson's doesn't strike me as a great life. I respect his achievements but it's a sad outcome. Sure he had fame. I'd rather just be healthy and have a quiet life.

Dont know if anyone caught Teddy Atlas and Jeremy Schaap on espn last night when they first broke the news, but they gave some great insight into Ali. Atlas was giving a boxing clinic about what made Ali the greatest, and how he thinks Ali pulled off his "phantom" punch of Liston, in their rematch.

Too many times the coverage of a fallen icon turns into a sideshow. This was better than the usual reporting, probably wont last though.

So sad about Ali.

Didn't realize he had a connection to Allan Houston. Weird for me because I relocated from NYC to Louisville in the past year to help take of my father who has a very similar illness to Ali. I justed visited the Muhammad Ali museum in Louisville and drove by his house a few months ago. Didn't realize Allan Houston grew up on the same street!

Might try to attend the funeral next week, depending on how open they make it.

Ali was about courage and how to do it in Life & his craft
not easy in the 60's .. believe today that would apply to everyone whom had a believe & stood up for it, regardless of losses

George Bush jr, presented Ali the 'Presidential Freedom' award
I shed few tears today, grew up as a 10 yr old admiring this man, fought 1st Ali-Frazier fight March 1970
my Birthday.

Peace & RIP to a man whom stood for more than just boxing, through his gains , mistakes
Courage and right to speak it ... Give you faith to pursure things important outside yourself.
I need that courage still.. sometimes in life, we all can use the positive
