Ted Williams' Son - Karma?
 
Remember that crazy shit when baseball legend Ted Williams died about his son John Henry stealing his body and having him cryogenically frozen?

The son who was only 35 died this weekend, got leukemia last spring it said.

The son had connections to the adult Internet biz, owned a hosting company/ISP in Florida called BigHitter.

so is he frozen too or what?

Mutt 03-08-2004 04:51 AM

that's what i was wondering too. I doubt it - the reason he wanted to have his famous father frozen was i think to sell his DNA someday when that kind of thing was a viable business.

So when do they bring him back

Adultlegal 03-08-2004 07:07 AM

Yup

he was frozen too

RIP Henry.

He owned Strictly Hosting a few years back. Super nice guy.

Henry went to our convention once or twice.

Your facts are misguided.

I knew JHW for many, many years. Do not believe the media bullshit.

tell us the real story then.


hundreds of Hall of Famers have died and i don't recall anything in the media like this about any of them, just tributes. so i fail to see any motivation for the media to pick Ted Williams and his family to create some kind of bullshit crazy story.

frozen next to his father...poetic justice.

wanderingbear 03-08-2004 10:37 AM

what is the deal with this family and being frozen? is it me or what? i just dont get it

Steve 03-08-2004 10:39 AM

he is a meat popsicle?

Furious_Male 03-08-2004 10:52 AM

Where does Karma come into play? Because hes dead or because some people say that he is frozen as well?

BuckLover 03-08-2004 11:57 AM

His dad was pissed for being made into a POP-sicle

Rich 03-08-2004 12:27 PM

I felt bad for Ted when his son would drag him out somewhere wearing a stupid hat for one of his lame companies.

Napolean 03-08-2004 12:39 PM

when i die... i wanna be frozen

i think it would be cool if they were able to bring me back

but i guess it would suck if someone didnt want that to happen.. if he seriously broke his fathers last wish, then that sucks.. but i dont see someone spending so much money to go against one request.

Many issues.

I was present in the meeting with Alcor back in 1998. So when the media stated it was thought up days before Ted's death, that was a lie. JHW and Ted both had many discussions about the Alcor center and both agreed to be frozen, back in 1998.

When the media stated that Ted was a prisoner in his own house, that was a lie. I had dinner/lunch/breakfast with Ted and JHW dozens of times. Ted came and went as he pleased, but always had a helper with him. The mad survived numerous strokes, and was a tough son of bitch.

Bobby Joe was never in the picture until close to Ted's death. She made it look like she was the doting daughter. She wasn't.

The only person who took care of Ted on a daily basis was JHW. People disliked JHW because he prevented Ted from being taken advantage. One particular case I remember in perfect detail was when NPR called and was looking to interview Ted. JHW refused them, and the guy from NPR said right on the phone, you will regret this JHW. A few weeks later, NPR was slamming JHW.

The media always had a love hate relationship with Ted dating back to his playing career.

Most everything you read and see on TV about the whole ordeal is utter bullshit. As I said, I worked with JHW and had the opportunity to get to know Ted. I would venture to say I am one of the few people on this planet who -really- knew JHW.
