Exactly. Bruce lee died in 73 not 72

So did Tolkien.

thanks ,,,

I was just 11. I had a metal Roberto Clemente “coin” that came with baseball cards back then. Sure wish I still had it.

Ah, the 70s, a decade filled with iconic figures and unforgettable moments. It's like we had our own version of the Avengers assembling!

MLB did Hodges dirty by waiting until 50 years after his death to induct him into the Hall Of Fame, and shortly before his widow passed away at 95.

@@kevinmiller6380 Agreed, also, they wasted the chance to elect Ron Santo, Orestes Miñoso and Buck O'Neill while they were still alive.

@@luishumbertovega3900 I made to trips to Hodges' hometown of Princeton, Indiana earlier this year, and on top of a shelf at the public library is a frsmed photograph of Hodges in his Brooklyn Dodgers uniform holding a bat in his hands.

@@kevinmiller6380 I hope you took a photo of that portrait.

That's the question I had

Yes, May 13,1972

Thank you for pointing out the need for improvement. I appreciate your feedback.

@@funeralfy …..My pleasure and Thank you 😊

some people need to learn how to get their point across professionally and not sound like an idiot

You're right. As a professional youtube commenter, I would have made a statement similar in meaning, but wholly without appearing like an untutored imbecile.@@JamesW9999

Adam Clayton Powell

Alright noted.

These people who put these on. They just haven't got a clue

I agree with you that Mr. William M.Johnson was 100 Years Old and Not 88 Years Old.

​@@ronaldhansen2378I just Googled his name, and the date of his birth is disputed, so we have absolutely no way of knowing whether he was actually born in 1872 or not, it gives his age as 58 in the 1940 census, so he could very well have been born in 1872.

I was just saying that. And I think I've s re enough a couple more discrepancies, also.

Lol, Even Google. 😍

Talk about bad timing! Poor Harry Truman couldn't even enjoy his Christmas presents before he kicked the bucket. Guess the aging process had other plans for him!

Thanks to David McCullough's prize winning biography of Truman, we are.able to take a second evaluation of his administration and his courage making tough decisions in tough times. When he left office, he was the most unpopular president amid calls for his impeachment. He fired Douglas McArthur, and rightly so. It took guts to fire the most popular general but McArthur was insubordinate and unwilling to follow orders. He countered massive strikes, though some of the orders were unconstitutional. But he wasn't paralyzed with indecision. He was incorruptible, honest as the day was long. He grew into the office of the president and operated the levers of power with responsible firmness.

😍😍😍

1972 waz an AWESOME year. CB

1972, I was just beginning middle school. Seems like a lifetime ago😢

Roberto was definitely a legend on and off the field. His team probably had to carry him sometimes, but he always managed to come through in the clutch!

Noted with thanks.

Also, they had Bruce Lee on here and it even says on the screen that he died in 1973.

Yes

Who waz George Sanders?? CB
