Is that a sex act? I dated a real whore about 20 years ago. She might have done a Rusty Staub.

There were a lot of rumors Le Grande Orange swung that way. Too soon? But in all seriousness, RIP Rusty. More than a great ballplayer, the guy was a great humanitarian who worked for so many charitable causes. Kids, widows, orphans, homeless, the NY Police and Fire Widows and Childrens fund... the guy really embraced NYC. |

This was posted by a fireman's widow: "I lost my husband and father to our children in a fire on January 7, 1976. At that time there was no organization to help us through tough times financially. Along came the wonderful Rusty Staub and his charitable heart. I cannot express my thankfulness when that first check came in the mail. That was just the beginning, parties, events, someone to reach out to, an extended family! So many families that he touched and helped. I will never forget all the good he has done. My God hold him in the palm of his hand and bless him with eternal happiness! With all the love and greatfulness: The Sanchez Family, Ladder Company 131 Red Hook, Brooklyn". I know for a fact his widow's and orphans fund has raised and distributed millions, even as the list of widows and orphans grew larger and larger over the years and Rusty always had time for everyone. Friend of mine, retired cop, saw Rusty in Manhattan a few years ago in the street. He stopped him to thank him and remind him they had met at a function years before. 9 hours later, the two of them finally finished up their drinks at a local watering hole, lol. He was that kind of guy. Rot in he......ah I cant do it. |

One of my very earliest Baseball Favs, when I was still young enough that I was looking at my uncles baseball card collections in awe and wonder. Too young to have seen him play, old enough to respect who and what he was, especially after his career was over when he championed so many causes of good.
RIP Rusty. A damn good man first, a damn good ballplayer second.
