Jerry Buss died today. The 80-year-old was arguably the greatest NBA owner in the history of the league. He was also a world-class Playmate aficionado who frequently dated teenage girls and used to host his birthday party at a brothel. To put it in more appropriate obituary terms, the man was "known for his eye for beautiful women." Aw, now that's nice. Here we present a tribute to his horndoggery, full of countless "unidentified" women in undersized tops and of questionable age. Let's remember him this way.
