I see from the other thread that Monty Hall died at the end of September, which I had missed.

Although he is best known as the long-time host of the game show "Let's Make a Deal," in some of the circles I run in, he is famous for being the namesake of an intriguing logic problem.

A lot of sportscasters aren't/weren't athletes, and so they are sort of edge case nonsports cards.

Dick Enberg died yesterday at age 82. In addition to calling various sports (baseball, basketball, football, golf, tennis, Olympics), he did occasional acting jobs, such as the movie "The Naked Gun."
