RIP Tony Soprano

Actor James Gandolfini has died at age 51. CNN is reporting he had a heart attack while vacationing in Italy. The Sopranos was one of my all time favorite shows. RIP.

That's a real shame. Sporano's was a truly groundbreaking show and I don't think it would have been the same with anybody but Gandolfini. 51 is too young for anybody.

Badda Bing Tony. Loved that series. Made way for great series like S.O.A. and more.
Way too young to die.

A lot of us here are beyond James's 51 yrs.. Go have a stress test you guys.
I started experiencing chest pains and have gone for two sets of stress tests. One where they just make you walk the tread mill and then a two day test where they inject a radio active tracer and take pic's and make you do the tread mill again. Nobody's knocking down my door to schedule me for an operation so I guess it's all good. I have three friends, all in their early fifties that have had heart attacks and required stints. Better to be safe than sorry.

Definite bummer. I've watched that series through a handful of times I bet. Radio said he was on a father-son vacation with his 14 year old boy. Damn.

Ricky that is EXACTLY why I do what my Dr. asks of me and get regular check ups and take meds. We are all that that "sudden cardiac" risk age and I was the best odds in my favor. 51... way too young....

Mine as well, and you and few others on the board have caught me stealing lines from the show, so there are a few fans on the board as well. Jame was a great speaker as well, and one of his passions was raising funds for wounded service members. He was very humble and couldn't stand praise. What a man!

So young. RIP James. You made a difference!

+1 I take mine morning and night...of course if I were to lose 40 lbs I could probably get off most of them and save $$ enough for a new bike!
