Myles Brand, Mary Travers, and Henry Gibson all dead


By their powers combined, we can beat Greinke and do some damage against the Twins in the Baggy Dome.

Myles Brand--Died at 67 after losing a fight with cancer. Things he was known for: firing Bob Knight at Indiana, created the academic success rate, and made college sports worth about a gazillion dollars. Story here.

Mary Travers-- Died at 72 also after losing a battle with cancer. She was a member of Peter, Paul and Mary with hits like "Puff the Magic Dragon" and "This land is your land." Story here

Henry Gibson -- Died at 73, sweet jesus after losing a battle with cancer (how wack is that?!). He was a regular on laugh-in during the late 60s/early 70s. Also appeared in guest roles on "Newhart," "Malcolm in the Middle," and "Magnum, P.I." Story Here.

UPDATE: Tiger lose to Twins 3-0
