Today Melvin''Doc'' Stanley and the SID family stop and take time to both salute and remember on his birthday,December 7th our late and beloved,Mel''Rooney''Smith Jr.,AKA ''Mel Cosell''. Rooney has now passed close to half a decade but his memory still lives on as he is the voice the brings on every 'Sports In Depth',show. And it was he who coined and made famous the term and words,''The Sports In Depth Nation.'' A sudden heart attack hospitalized Rooney and just a few days later on the ensueing weekend,Melvin Smith Jr.,passed. His genius,insight, intellect and humor were traits and aspects that are vasily missed and aided what makes,'Sports In Depth', SID such an great,elite and informative show.

As too was the fact that the youngest man to ever win the heavyweight championship of the world was both a dear friend and also like him in their youth a wrestling buff,Michael Gerad Tyson,yes ''Iron'' Mike Tyson and Mel,''Rooney''were child hood friends and close buddies. Rooney will be both forever missed and loved. **TRUST*IN*GOD** "A point well taken.'' "The Sports In Depth Nation'' "And If I may say.'' Mel Smith Jr.AKA'Rooney''
