Neil Armstrong. Neil with one L, not Ditka's predecessor who collected more Ls than the two in his name.

Frankly, this one doesn't deserve a silly title (although the one above is fine).  Neil was a hero in the truest sense of the word.  That he didn't turn into a fame whore as would have easily been possible is as big a credit to the man's character as was his willingness to risk his life in exploration.

A sad day for America and a sad day for the human race.

Well yeah, b/c he was a dumbshit and if he came out and talked and tried to be a "fame whore", the truth about not really landing on the moon and filming it in Hollywood would have come out.

A popular expression in our household during the bleak 1980 and 1981 seasons was that they had sent the wrong Neill (sic) Armstrong to the moon.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

While Apollo 11 was all cool and shit, Gemini 8 was where Neil Armstrong proved he had gigantic steel balls.

Chuck is...right? totally gay for NASA.

Not to brag or anything'd

On my one and only visit to Cape Canaveral, I was stopped by security on the way out. I was suspected of trying to smuggle out a Saturn V in my pants pocket.
