I am a huge fan of Dean Martin and Don Rickles, he's a genius! Even today, he never fails to be ready with a snappy comeback. I purchased the entire Dean Martin Roast collection on DVD. I would love to share it with everyone who cares to watch it but due to copyright infringement laws, and also being fairly 'new' to youtube, I don't know how or if I can download it to my channel/profile, if anyone out there, and I'm sure there are many, please mail me instructions on how to go about it. Ty!
This is back in the day before political correctness. I grew up on this kind of humor, then it was no longer acceptable. It was Tipper Gore who brought about political correctness and I have hated it ever since.
Frank Sinatra tap danced and made many movies doing it as well as sing. That is the reason don tickles said he tap dances around Italians. Sinatra is the boss as rickles calls him!
Yeah but Don didn't exactly do the Italians any favor either. Ali asked Don if he'd talk that way around Italians and Don said no way, he'd tap dance around them instead - obviously implying that all Italians are gangsters or cutthroats. It was Don's gig to insult people. Ali should have known that. All of the black entertainers who were ever insulted by Don, took it very well and were good sports. I'm not saying that Don didn't take it too far, only that it was his brand of humor.
Sir, My hats of to you as I take a humble bow. You get it. Not only do you get it, you understand it. Anyone with any IQ at all can see that these people respected each other. Today it s all about putting the other down any way you can. This humor was and still is funny as hell. I enjoy the comics of today but, get so tired of every other word being so vulgar. Peace be with you.
the truth is he wanted to get a comedic uper hand on Ali by making ppl laugh at him with racial humer sure he was smart enough not to go too low but he did it he went racial and Ali called on it when he said why r u talking like that
@kormastas Do you not understand what the show was about? its called a roast because everyone on it were made fun of!! Ali should have done the same..sadly i cant find that bit!!! it was a good humored show that everyone expected to be ridiculed.... And of course it would not be accepted now...but it was all harmless fun then by friends!!!
I have to say after watching all these roasts and don rickles on tlak shows that Don is probably on of the most charismatic guys I have ever seen. When Muhammed Ali says you'd do a good job as his manager you gotta take notice of the guy.
Ali is sooo not funny.

The thing is, Rickles dishes it out, but he can take it too. Sometimes a race joke is just a joke, and not racist (as odd as that may sound).

It wasnt so much racist, as people these days are just too damn sensetive.
I'm a proud black man myself who had the honor or meeting Rickles. He didnt have a hateful bone in his body, anyone who knew this, knew him....
He lived to make others smile and laugh, so dont get it twisted lol as you young folk say....
Snap out of it, stop being so sensitive and grow up.
Stop yelling racism at every little thing you dont understand kid.

Thats about right. People today are just too damn sensitive.
I am a proud black man, who had the pleasure of meeting Don Rickles. The man doesnt have a racist or hateful bone in his body.
His one goal in life was just too make people laugh.
In the same manor of say Redd Foxx.......Redd has some pretty harsh jokes about white people...but anyone offended by that just didnt get it.
Funny thing is, Redd & Don were good friends.
Same jokes Rickles told about Obama he had about a JFK or Reagan.

@IDidItMyWay78 I agree people are too sensitive now. There is room for humor, and a more lighthearted
view. We are all human, men women black white, we are all here and always will be. Living together and
sharing the same air and water and planet. We can fight or coexist. If you have religion I think you know the
answer. I personally am not so religious but even I know the answer. Thank you IDidItMyWay78 1 for your
views and good luck in life.
Thanks
