George Best death watch
 

His doctors said he has taken a turn for the worst last night. They also say he could get better but not sounding good.

So, sad as it is, death watch is on.

At first I thought this was about George Bush. Who is George Best?

sarah,

who is George Best?b

George Best was one of Britain's top soccer players of the 1960s and 1970s - a real playboy and a forerunner of David Beckham.

Sadly he's better known these days for being a raging alcoholic who fucked his liver so badly he had to have a liver transplant. He kept on drinking after his transplant and now it looks like he'll be gone very soon.

English soccer(football) legend. guess he was the David Beckham of his day but moreso - huge playboy.

you win some, you lose some :2 cents:

Did I read that right, George "best death watch"? or that would be the last name of George?

Where are the Euros..it is morning here..lol

His name is George Best and he is a legend of football/soccer.

you can find everything about him on wikipedia, but just something people that already know him might "enjoy" to read:

every summer since he was 19 he left for a two month holiday to mallorca. Course, more people followed every summer. Two months of drinking and having fun. At the center was Bestie. George eventually walked into a restaurant called "Gomilla Grill", this was two weeks after he led united to the win in the champions league. He ordered a heineken and got to know the owner, Felix Izquierdo-Morene, a young man that had to give up a promising career at Barcelona due to an injury. That got to know eachother (mainly because felix offered him to drink for free). Year after year Bestie came back. New stars followed and soon Kevin Keegan, Marting Buchan and others frequented.

Bestie had a businesside and wanted felix in on it. Bestie was tired of football and wanted to be in the show business. He opened two businesses in Manchester, Slack Alice and Oscars. Felix was to run them and he did. Daytime he ran the big restaurant Oscars and after it closed for the evening he continued over to Slack Alice and kept working. After that closed he was Bestis personal driver (Bestie couldn't drive). A usual day for Bestie started at the Brown Bull at 6-7 in the afternoon. Around 10 he would head over to Slack Alice were he drank around 4 bottles of wine and had drinks with Felix after it closed (felix didn't drink). After it closed it was time to move on. He normally went to a casino and could spend as much as £50,000 a night (this was in the 70's). Everyone wanted to be seen with Bestie. Bryan Ferry, Mick Jagger, Gilbert O Sullivan etc went with him. After the casino they headed home (sun was on it way up at this point). Felix and Bestie always ended up at the same intersection. They had to turn right to drive Bestie home. Straight ahead was the way to Phyllis Lynott, the mother of This Lizzy star Phil Lynott, and she always had a party going. Felix was always told to drive straight ahead. They did this night after night, year after year...

eh not how i read the title

damn, sounds like he's a gonner

who's George Best?
Just kidding.. I just found the question funny, as if someone didn't know who George Best was.

Not all that suprising really - soccer really isn't that big in the US

wtf spacko

His best quote ever was when asked what he did with all his money:
"I spent it on birds, boose and fast cars, the rest I just squandered" :D

Fucked many Miss Worlds. Pele said he was the best player in the world. He has internal bleeding now! :Oh crap

Classic Best

I remember when Pele said he was the best player he'd ever seen. Sad story. :(

Say it ain't so about Georgie! Damn, he was a great soccer player. Hope he gets better, give him another liver and let him have a few more drinks!

truly talented.
