That guy bloomed seriously late, like when he was in his 50's. Gives me hope. I'll miss him

R.I.P Rodney. He was my Dads favorite comedian and mine as well. He will be missed

I agree, he was beginning to catch a following in his mid to late fifties.
I always enjoyed the ones that picked fun of themselves, (or the nameless ones around them) it seemed the average 'Joe' could relate to his / their schtick.

A co-worker and I say that about twice a week. One of our favorite lines.

Will be greatly missed

Anybody remember him in the flashback scenes in "Natural Born Killers" ???

The spellbinding performance of a true master.

Man that truly blows. He was one of the best comedians...

RIP. I miss him already.

Thre's a comedy club in Heaven and Sam Kinnison is about to introduce the new arrival<snip>

With all due respect, Sam Kinnison was a worthless motherfucking - Anti-gun - cocksucking - POS. I am sure he would not be allowed the same stage as R.D.

Thanks for trying to drag this thread down to your level.

Kinnison was funnier than just about any other comic, ever. I don't let someone's political views get in the way if they're as funny as Kinnison was. It's not like I had to vote for him or anything. Make me laugh and that's good enough for now.

Are you even aware that Dangerfield and Kinnison were both in "Back to School" and had a professional relationship, too? Specifically, Rodney was Kinnison's "mentor", so to speak, and got Kinnison his major breaks and gigs.

Have a clue of what you're talking about before you say it next time, please.

The FUNNIEST thing I ever heard was when Kinnison was talking about Sally Strothers and starving African kids.

"You see this? Its sand...yes sand, NOTHING GROWS HERE, MOVE TO WHERE THE FOOD IS...UGH AHHH."

My wife is attached to a machine that keeps her alive...the refrigerator.

Just once I'd like to go somewhere without someone honking and pointing to one of my tires.

Well, 'Sonny', at my ripe old age of 72, I believe I can call you 'Sonny'. I am very aware of the two and their political views.
Perhaps, knowing ones enemy and acknowledging such is part of the battle (make no mistake, we are in a battle) perhaps part of the battle is, 'you' need to decide which side you are upon. I can understand you 'feelings', he was funny to you. Let the antigun shyte get spoken, for it is funny, right? Let it go out the door, what does it 'matter to you'? Right?

Now, please explain 'my level'? I wish to understand how a 'pro-gun person' wishes to stand strong for such an asshole as SK? Did you ever go to at least 'one' of his shows'? I did, I walked out, from his LIEberal crap.

Now, I 'made' no attack upon you, you were the first one to 'get in a huff', if you 'wish' to make it so, then, so be it, the evening is young.

YMMV.

Why don't we just drop it out of respect to Rodney Dangerfield and call it a night?

I could do battle with you over this issue for quite some time, but to what point? None that really matters as you're not going to change my views and I'm probably not going to change yours. So let's not waste the energy. Only a fool tries to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.

Sorry about that, Rodney.

Sad news.

Time to watch Caddyshack again and remember the good times.

"This is the worst looking hat I ever saw. I bet you buy a hat like this and you get a free bowl of soup! Oh, it looks good on you though."

"I bet you were something before electricity. Hey, you wanna make $14 the hard way?"

"This steak still has marks where the jockey was hitting it."

Agreed. You are an honourable gentleman, cmjohnson.

R.D. Break a leg.

A man who made his fortune on self-deprecation.

The ability to laugh at yourself, of course, being the sign of a truly great man.

RIP

"Hey Moose, Rocco, help the judge find his checkbook" Caddyshack, one of the classics. I used to wish that Rodney was my dad and Chevy Chase was my brother. What a family that would be.

R.I.P.R.D. I know I'll miss ya.

Damn, that sucks. Rodney will still be the best comedian ever in my book.

Rest in Peace Rodney...

Punk: "You wanna get physical, old man?"
RD: "No, no. I don't get physical -- I get upset. And when I get upset, HE gets physical." (points to bodyguard who crushes a napkin dispenser in his hand)

One of my favorite bits from Back to School.

We loved you Rodney! Say hi to Sam for us, and tell him we miss him too!
