Born in Rochester, N.Y., in 1928, Glazer had been in frail health since 2006 after two strokes left him with impaired speech and little mobility in his right arm and leg.

The Glazer family bought the Tampa Bay Buccaneers NFL franchise in 1995. The team went on to win its first and only championship after the 2002 season. Glazer then bought Manchester United in 2005, with a reported $1.47 billion purchase that was opposed by fans of the team. United went on to win five Premier League titles (2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013), along with winning the 2008 Champions League title, under Glazer’s ownership.

Glazer’s widow, along with their five sons and daughter will continue to hold ownership of the Buccaneers, the team said.

No other information has been released at this time.

Oprah Tells An Atheist She Believes In God. The Atheist Responds Like A Christian. Or Any Human.

Confession time: I’m an atheist. PLEASE DON’T CLOSE THIS WINDOW YET! By being an atheist, I am in no way judging others’ beliefs. I just lack them. Same with Diana Nyad, the world class swimmer and all-around awesome human being. We still have moral codes, just like everyone else. We just are slightly different. Which Oprah didn’t think was possible. However, Oprah recovered nicely toward the end and really listened, which was a pleasant surprise. Yay for civilized conversation!

I would really love it if you could find it in your heart to share this. Everyone thinks we’re all dead inside and can’t appreciate the beauty of the universe. But we really do. And we have real morals and everything. So please share this. And if you liked what Diana had to say, you could Like her on Facebook. I’ll owe you one.
