   Grant James, One Piece and Fullmetal Alchemist Actor, Dies at 87 Grant James, the so-called Godfather of Acting in Dallas, has passed away. He was 87 years old. The news was shared by Juli Erickson on Facebook as the voice actress shared her husband had passed. The two were married in 1986 some years after James earned his MFA. The couple was together for 36 years, and their love of acting guided them into teaching. Erickson taught numerous classes with James, and their acting knowledge gave them the monikers "of... The Godfather and Godmother of Acting" in Dallas. For those who don't know James by name, you will most definitely know his voice. The dub actor has been involved in numerous anime series over the years including Dragon Ball Z, Detective Conan, Fairy Tail, and more. Famously, James oversaw the role of Zeff in One Piece and Scar's master in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. |

Dying at 37 sucks enough as too young but just after getting married. Life is just not fair sometimes. RIP

 Al Bemiller, a former guard and center for the Buffalo Bills, passed away on at the age of 84. He played college football at Syracuse University and professionally in the American Football League for the Buffalo Bills. He was a member of two AFL championship teams with the Bills and was inducted into the Greater Buffalo Hall of Fame in 2015. Bemiller was drafted as an offensive lineman by the Buffalo Bills in 1961, when he immediately became their starting center, replacing Dan McGrew, although the latter was the All-AFL 2nd team center in the Bills' inaugural season of 1960. During the 1961 season, Bemiller played in all 14 games between fellow rookie Billy Shaw at left offensive guard and second-year pro Chuck Muelhaupt at right guard and under head coach Buster Ramsey. In 1962, he continued to play center next to Shaw and new right guard Tom Day under new head coach Lou Saban. The three linemen would play together up to 1963, when the Bills tied for first place in the AFL East Division, but lost a playoff game to the Boston Patriots. In 1964, Bemiller switched to right offensive guard, playing between veteran center Walt Cudzik and right offensive tackle Dick Hudson, when the Bills won their first AFL championship. They repeated in 1965, when Bemiller became an AFL All-Star at right guard, still next to Hudson but with a new center, Dave Behrman. In 1966, under new head coach Joe Collier, Bemiller switched back to center, playing between Shaw and right guard Joe O'Donnell. From 1967 to 1969, he remained the starting center but also played left offensive tackle in 1967. In 1968, he played between Shaw and Bob Kalsu and in 1969, his final year, between Shaw and O'Donnell. He was replaced the following year by Frank Marchlewski. In his 9-year career with the Bills, he never missed a game. |
