Football legend, actor Bubba Smith dead
Bubba Smith, a veteran of nine NFL seasons and actor of Police Academy fame, was found dead Wednesday at his home in Los Angeles, according to the Los Angeles Times.
He was 66.Police had not determined a cause of death by Wednesday night, but officials believe he died of natural causes, according to The Times.
Smith spent his career as a defensive lineman with the Baltimore Colts, Oakland Raiders and Houston Oilers, making the Pro Bowl as a Colt in 1970 and '71.
Known for his imposing 6-7 frame, Smith was one of the league's most feared linemen, often requiring two men to slow him down. He retired from the NFL in 1976 after two seasons with the Oilers, turning his focus to acting.
He got his start with a series of popular Miller Lite television ads featuring former players, including one in which he tore the top off a beer can with ease (video below).
Smith went on to star in the Police Academy film franchise, launched in 1984. He played Moses Hightower, a soft-spoken gentle giant. Smith would appear in all but one of the six sequels.His television and film career spanned from 1978 to 2010 and included appearances in television series' such as Good Times and Charlie's Angels.
At Michigan State, Smith was an All-American lineman in 1965 and '66, celebrated by fans with the chant "Kill Bubba, Kill."
He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1988 and Michigan State retired his No. 95 jersey in 2006.
Two seasons after the Colts made Smith the No. 1 pick of the 1967 NFL draft, he was depicted in one of the indelible images of the burgeoning league, leaping at a poised Joe Namath during Super Bowl III.The Colts would lose that Super Bowl, cemented in NFL lore by Namath's pregame guarantee for the underdog Jets. But two years later, Smith and the Colts went on to win Super Bowl V, defeating the Dallas Cowboys 16-13.

Smith was found dead
With the passing of legendary MSU and NFL star Charles “Bubba” Smith, Spartan Nation has lost a deity, a Hollywood icon and a friend.
Smith was found dead by a caretaker Wednesday in his Los Angeles home.
On the football field, the 6-foot-7, 280-pound Smith was as ferocious a defensive end as the game has ever seen. From the time he stepped onto campus to play for legendary MSU head coach Duffy Daugherty in 1964, Smith became known for his tenacity and work ethic on the field and his comfortable charisma off it.
“He was a true Spartan,” former head football coach George Perles said. “Him and Duffy were very close. It was beautiful when you would see them together. They had so much respect for each other.”
Although he struggled adjusting in his first two seasons after coming to MSU from Beaumont, Texas, Smith would be remembered as one of the legends in the history of the program, as he paved a career that would lead to his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1988. In his final two seasons at MSU, the two-time All-American Smith led the Spartans to a combined record of 19-1-1, which included back-to-back Big Ten and national championships in 1965 and 1966.
Perhaps his finest moment came in his final game at MSU, in which Smith anchored the Spartan defense — separating the shoulder of Fighting Irish starting quarterback Terry Hanratty on a tackle — in a 10–10 draw with Notre Dame in a game billed as the “Game of the Century.” The game produced more than 20 All-Americans and 30 future professional football players.
“I don’t think that they’ve had a game where they had that much talent on the field,” Smith told The State News in 2006. “Show me a game that had that much talent, that had that many first-round picks to come out of that game.”
Smith’s aura continued to grow as he was drafted with the first overall pick in the 1967 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Colts. He spent five seasons with the Colts, where he would reach the Super Bowl twice and win once in Super Bowl V before he was traded to the Oakland Raiders in 1972.
During his time in the NFL, Smith would develop many high-profile friends, including NFL Hall of Famer Dick Butkus. Butkus — who starred alongside Smith in commercials for Miller Lite and the short-lived TV series “Blue Thunder” — said working with Smith allowed the two to be close for many years.
“I just started laughing when we used to do the commercials,” Butkus said. “We helped each other with how to make something a little bit funnier. We really worked at it, and I was proud of that – what we did. … I really miss him.”
After a knee injury slowed his career, he retired from the Houston Oilers in 1976 and focused on building an acting career.
Smith landed several small roles in many popular shows in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, most notably “Good Times,” “Taxi” and “Charlie’s Angels.” With his tremendous size merged with his subtle humor, he would gain the respect of fellow actors, including “Good Times” co-star Jimmie Walker, who became a fan of the “gentle giant.”
His big break would come when he landed the role of florist-turned-officer Moses Hightower in the 1984 hit “Police Academy.”
Smith later made a public return to his alma mater in 2006 on the 40th anniversary of the “Game of the Century” to see his No. 95 jersey retired and his name added to the Ring of Fame at Spartan Stadium. As he waved to the crowd, he was greeted with a framed No. 95 jersey by then-sophomore defensive end Justin Kershaw — who wore No. 95 but vacated the number following the game — and the famed “Kill, Bubba, Kill” chant by the Spartan faithful.
“Needless to say, Bubba was a longtime friend,” said former MSU wide receiver and teammate Gene Washington in a statement to the athletics department. “He was a great teammate and a great leader. Bubba never had to say much because he led by example.”![bubba smith dead](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tVr7E1SguuX5Co8PVhNXXLUcJmrIfKIKMUiw-NxPcB89zFZiEDz4uc6rrW4sY6WmKjBHIEpSUeAeT7Q58bwdiAUGjizCtpaBf4Bl-gIw1mofh4kofzwdQsH1V34h7B1fdZPJLd6NkWtLWOD0KDJQ=s0-d)

Questions with Bubba Smith -- Ogden Nash
Actor and football great Charles A. "Bubba" Smith grew up in Beaumont, Texas, graduating from Charlton-Pollard High School, where he played for his father, coach Willie Ray Smith, Sr. Willie Ray bred three All-State Smiths -- Willie Ray, Jr., Tody, and Bubba. They made Charlton Pollard a perennial power in Texas school football. In Bubba's senior year the school was 11-0, and college recruiters beat down the doors at the Smith household until Bubba decided to attend Michigan State University.
Bubba became one of MSU's all-time great players, winning All-Big Ten and All-America honors for two straight years (1965 and 1966) as the team stomped through two unbeaten seasons and became the national champions. Whether he was playing tackle, defensive end, or middle guard, fans would cheer him on with, "Kill, Bubba, Kill!"
In 1967, the Baltimore Colts made him their number one draft choice. Bubba stayed with the Colts through the 1972 season and racked up some impressive statistics: He played in the NFL championship game in 1968 and the Super Bowl in 1969 and 1971. He was chosen All-AFC in 1970 and 1971, and played in the Pro-Bowl in 1971 and 1972.
A ten-year veteran of the NFL, wrote his memoirs, "Kill, Bubba, Kill," with Hal de Windt in 1983.
He has developed a successful second career as an actor, first working in Miller Lite beer commercials then starring in the Police Academy movies.

SportsHollywood: Who do you think will win the Super Bowl?

Racism no match for beloved Bubba Smith
“Bubba” Smith leaves a legacy that shines beyond the football field and television screens that made him famous. The gentle yet also ferocious 6-foot-7 giant and Michigan State great stood tall in the face of 1960s racism that stained our society and did not allow it to sack his potential. Smith to this day serves as an admirable example of how to deal with the most mean-spirited of injustices and thrive in spite of other’s determined efforts to stop you.
Smith, the former Michigan State great and Hollywood actor who died this week, deserves heaps of praise for enduring what he did.
It could not have been easy.
I was born six years after Smith departed East Lansing and think of him more for his hilarious “Miller Lite” commercials and role as “Moses Hightower” in Police Academy movies than his dominance in football.
Until reading a number of stories on the man this week, I did not realize his path to Michigan State, the NFL and Hollywood.
Originally from Beaumont, Texas, Smith came along with other black players to Michigan State because then-coach Duffy Daugherty let them play, while major schools in the Jim Crow-ruled South did not.
Six of the group — including Smith and two other eventual College Football Hall of Famers in George Webster and Gene Washington — became starters in 1965 at Daugherty’s instructions — a historic move considering the times.
Smith, then a junior, understood the significance and thankfully made the most of it.
He spearheaded a defense that helped the Spartans go 19-1-1 over the next two season, with the tie being a 10-10 draw with Notre Dame in a legendary “Game of the Century” between the No. 1 Fighting Irish and No. 2 and unbeaten Spartans.
He and his teammates proved, beyond any reasonable doubt, that black players were anything but inferior to their white counterparts in talent and ability to be team leaders.
He also possessed the maturity and wisdom to manage the intense pressure he faced.
“I knew that was something that had never happened before,” Smith told the Lansing State Journal in 2005. “I went to each man individually. I said, ‘This is our chance. We’ve got to do this. If we don’t do this, it will never happen again.’ We had to show that we could be leaders, and winners.”
Smith undoubtedly faced racism here in Michigan, too. It’s an ill that can spread anywhere and still creeps today. There had to be painful and frustrating moments.
Smith, however, overcame them and reminded us anything is possible if you remain vigilant and dedicated to do what’s right, especially in sports.
The NFL called, with the Baltimore Colts taking Smith first overall in 1967. He remains the only Spartan to receive such distinction and won Super Bowl V with the Colts in 1970.
Smith went to Hollywood after his NFL career ended and built a successful acting career.
He did a lot to display his vast talents. Not bad for a youth from Beaumont, Texas, who some misguided and pathetic bigots did not want to see on their football field.

Dame Helen Mirren Hollywood
Dame Helen Mirren opted not to take off her shoes when imprinting her feet in Hollywood earlier this week, leading to The Daily Mail to comment that her mark looked more like a hoof shape than a footprint. The time-honoured tradition has seen adulated movie stars leave their mark from the 1920s to the present day. Once completed the art piece which also features her signature and the date will be installed into the pavement in front of the theatre on Hollywood Boulevard. Other stars have been more inventive over the years with a variation on the hand/footprint theme: Groucho Marx and George Burns left imprints of their cigars, John Wayne his fist, Betty Grable her renowned legs and Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint pressed their characters' magic wands into the malleable cement. Mirren joins a very elite list, with less than 200 stars having been asked the honour since the tradition began. Mirren is only the 29th new addition since the year 2000, joining the Harry Potter stars and other newbies Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Cher, Johnny Depp and Michael Caine.
Mirren is well known for numerous stage and screen roles including her multi award-winning turn as DCI Jane Tennison in the Prime Suspect tv drama series, for which she won best actress awards at the BAFTAs for three years running from 1992-94. As well as film hits such as Calendar Girls, National Treasure: Book Of Secrets, Teaching Mrs Tingle, Gosford Park and Red, she has developed something of a habit of playing monarchs. She is the only actress to have played both Queen Elizabeth's on screen - Elizabeth I in the 2005 television series of the same name and Elizabeth II in Stephen Frears' much lauded 2006 film The Queen, for which she won a best actress Academy Award. She received a best supporting actress Oscar nomination for her role as Queen Charlotte, the wife of King George III in 1994's The Madness Of King George and even voiced the role of The Queen in the Dreamworks animated movie The Prince Of Egypt.
Mirren's last appearance on the West End stage was the tragic title role in Jean Racine's Phedre at the National Theatre in 2009, directed by Richard Hytner. Other London stage credits include Nina in The Seagull at The Lyric Theatre, Marjorie in Extremities at The Duchess and Lady Torrance in Orpheus Descending at the Donmar Warehouse. She was invested as a Dame Commander of the Order of the Bristish Empire (DBE) in 2003, which she has since claimed she was initially wary of and had to be encouraged to accept by her friends and colleagues. She had previously declined a CBE in 1996.
Her waxwork was unveiled at Madame Tussauds London in May 2010. The likeness took four months to complete and reportedly cost £150,000 to complete. She is next to be seen in the remake of Dudley Moore and Liza Minelli's 1981 movie Arthur. She will play nanny to Russell Brand's Arthur, in an update of the butler role played by Sir John Gielgud in the original.

Mirren's show business career spans many years. However, in the last couple of decades, the silver-haired fox has really come into her own. She is one hot babe, no matter her age, but at 66 she is definitely scorching. In addition to her obvious beauty, the actress has won many fans over with her incredible talent, sassy charm and impeccable fashion style.
As for the Esquire cover, it is sure to have people talking for many years to come. Draped provocatively with the British flag, Helen Mirren sets the page on fire. While she isn't the real Queen of England, she is definitely the queen of many hearts. Helen Mirren never looked better, which explains how she landed on the list of Sexiest Women Alive and on the cover. Sorry, Megan Fox, but she's got you beat by a mile. All hail the Queen!
