Former CNN Sports Anchor Nick Charles dies
http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/06/25/nick.charles.obit/index.html?hpt=hp_c1

I remember watching Nick Charles and Fred Hickman in the early to mid 1990's...They were a very good team..

Today ESPN is totally unwatchable as the anchors think it's a try-out for the Improv, always attempting to do a sports show with unfunny wise-cracks..Charles & Hickman just did a sports show, and did it well...

3. Sanjay Gupta had a really poignant show about Charles last weekend.
The man was not letting his illness define him.

The way he was living his final days has a lot of lessons for us all.
