Extremely sad. Very alarming someone would pass away of natural causes at 25?Makes me scared .I know he gained weight back but still that doesn't make sense. RIP
Good reminder when people are bashing players because they “suck” that they’re just people. Young people. Going through shit maybe. Money doesn’t fix it all.
Not only did he gain it back, I think he may have been at his heaviest months after being out the league.
I had missed this yesterday, and then just saw an "in memoriam" note about him on BBRef. Hit me hard. It's going to be a somber draft day.
Awww man. Sad. Has anyone had such a feel good story turn to a feel bad story in such a short amount if time? He was a poster child for what hard work can get you for the youth only 3 years ago. No he is a “ avoid that path” lesson. I wish he could have found help. @PtldPlatypus I missed this too. Somber indeed…
That's a crazy but astute point. I don't think I can really think of anyone who's swung so widely and quickly from inspirational story to cautionary tale.
