Dan Gross Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 I only heard about it on the way home from work but I thought the same thing...
Ned Flanders Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Yes, Nipsey is gone, It's so sad to see, So if I ever watch him again, It will be on "Match Game '73."
KD in CA Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Apparently, God took Nipsey Russell for the block. R.I.P.

rockpile Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Along with Bills Cosby and Flip Wilson, he did a lot to break the "color" barrier in the sixties just by being himself. I would add Redd Fox to that list but in the 60's he was best known for his bawdy routines that did not make the main stream.
