How do you feel when Tony Greig's death?

How do you feel when Tony Greig's death used as a anti-smoking advert by NGOs who merely work as money making organizations?

For me i really feel sad.

It's true that he got lung cancer may be from smoking.But he died coz of cardiac arrest.

Using his death as a advert make me really uncomfortable ,what would it make in the mind of the future generation who never saw him?

I'd like them to see a brilliant cricketer /amazing commentator above all great human being.Not as a wasted white smoker.

    If Tony Greig's death used as a anti-smoking advert changes one person's life for the better then that is brilliant. No matter what happens Tony Greig will be a big name in cricket folklore.

    I grew up listening to him commentate with Bill Larry. Very sad that he passed. Any advert against smoking is a good one i think. Lawry *

    Is this the same lot the Bradman family took to court because they were using Bradmans name for biscuits/cookies? If so, it doesn't surprise me,they will stoop to anything IMO.It's a sad thing that they pick on dead people to help further their cause.

    It was a heart-breaking news for me to be honest. His voice was one of the most familiar voices in cricket. He was an unbiased commentator too.
