R.I.P. Whitney Houston…

Whitney Houston died yesterday at the age of 48. I remember her growing up for her unquestioned musical talent, her drug addiction, and her turbulent relationship with Bobby Brown.

Since this is a sports blog, I am not going to go into depth, but I always admired her musical talent and she’s definitely died way too long.

Here’s a clip in what many people I know consider the best sports rendition of the “Star Spangled Banner” ever. (This was sung prior to Super Bowl XXV in Tampa when the US was at war in Iraq which is why you see so many flags being waived.)
