Baseball legend Ted Williams dead at 83

[DEVILRAYS]

The Splendid Splinter, a true baseball legend, was pronounced dead of cardiac arrest this morning. He was a baseball legend as well as an American hero, and the Red Sox organization took today's game to pay respects to him today. <B>God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam; God bless America, my home sweet home; God bless America, my home sweet home.</B><

pretty stoopid!! i think they should respect his wishes instead of freesing him! <i></i>

isn't that against the law, to get against someone's wishes when it comes to how they want to be treated post-mortum wise?<

It is, I guess, but now they are trying to prove that Williams wanted to be cremated...it's all really screwed up... <B>God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above.

Yeah....it looks like there are two wills. One says that he wanted no funeral and ashes scattered around but then on the other hand his son has presented a paper stating that he wanted to be frozen. I don't even know what's the point in that either. What did they wanna do with his DNA? Use it for future cloning experiments? <i></i>
