I know this is a Celtics basketball board, but a true icon in comedy has passes and I just wanted fans of his here to know about it. 

RIP Macman

Mainevent you are so right about Bernie Mac being an icon...sad to see one of the greats pass on at such an early age (50)..

I used it the link and read the article.  Then again I hadn't seen or heard the news, so it was indeed "news to me".  Sounds like Bernie had been illin' for some time.
Yup

Woah. I was watching his movie "Guess Who", last night, too. Didn't even know he was sick.

RIP, not really familiar with his work as a comic as I had no desire to really see any of his comedy show work on TV but I liked him in Juice. He will be missed.

Mr 3,000 was one of the worst movies I have ever seen, I did like him in Oceans 11 though.
