    Michael Jackson R.I.P.

    Not doing well according to this report:

    http://www.tmz.com/2009/06/25/michae...he-hospital%2F

    Michael Jackson -- Cardiac Arrest
    Posted Jun 25th 2009 4:30PM by TMZ Staff

    We've just learned Michael Jackson was taken by ambulance to a hospital in Los Angeles ... and we're told it was cardiac arrest and that paramedics administered CPR in the ambulance ... and it's looking bad.



    He was picked up at his home around 20 minutes ago -- we're told his mother is on the way to visit him.

    UPDATE: The 911 call came in at 12:21PM at his Holmby Hills home in L.A.

    UPDATE: A Jackson family member tells TMZ Michael is in "really bad shape" and the brothers are headed to UCLA.

    UPDATE: We just got off the phone with Joe Jackson, Michael's dad, who says "he is not doing well."

    Re: Michael Jackson in ER

    Michael Jackson, according to this report, died.

    http://www.tmz.com/

    We've just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.

    Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

    Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.

    Jackson had 13 number one hits during his solo career.
    Rest In Peace, Michael.

    Death has not been offically confirmed.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    LA Times reports that Jackson wasn't breathing when the paramedics got there.

    Wow!

    Geraldo hinting that it may not have been natural causes.

    Wow.

    Shocking to say the least.

    He was all kinds of odd, but I kept expecting there to be this huge come back at some point musically speaking.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    He was scheduled to do a bunch of comeback concerts starting on July 13th through next year - all of them sold out in minutes.

    CNN says a coma.

    Check that. Headline said coma, story said death after a coma.
