I was just going to ask the same thing. On August 3rd, apparently.

Now posted in the correct thread:

The headline makes it sound like he was snorting coke. It was DIET PILLS.

Also the news was on FARK when he died August 3rd.

"Bubba Smith, ex-NFL player, actor, and noted florist found dead"

Taking diet pills with high blood pressure and an enlarged heart can be as dangerous as cocaine.

Steve Guttenberg then bows, and takes credit for ensuing laughter.

Did the drugs have great taste? Or were they less filling?

Oh, man... I can understand why someone of his noted size would be taking diet pills, but, given his athletic career, you'd have thought that he would have had the sense to talk to a doctor first. Sad, really.

While Bobcat Goldthwait merely says "Hi" and then notices blood shooting from all nearby ears.

"At 6'7", Smith was an NFL football star for Baltimore Colts from 1967, before he moved into acting following a career-ending injury in 1976."

That's some mighty fine writin' there, Paul Millar.

NFL doctors in the 70's would've told him to take twice as much
