I believe it's stolen from a quote said about Teddy Roosevelt

Except is was said by Vice President Thomas R. Marshall upon Theodore Roosevelt’s death and co-opted as a Chuck Norris joke.
replyTeddy Roosevelt was the Chuck Norris of his day. It is appropriate.
replyI think that comparison is quite unfair to Teddy, and overly flattering to Chuck Norris.
replyHistorian, sheriff, war hero, governor, explorer, and a successful President who reshaped America largely for the better. While Roosevelt was human, he led a life that very few have ever matched.
That said, the line does fit them both.
Literally saved Football.
replyAll due respect, no comparison, teddy is a real legend not just cinema. Lets not conflate the two. Much love to chuck though.
replyIt's a kickass obituary, no matter the subject!
replyI agree!
replyIt is funny because you usually think of Death as something inevitable and people just accept it but then ... some of these guys put up a fight. Mega-LMAO!
