[ClownCausedChaos2]

From complications of multiple health issues.  Maybe the most underrated sports nickname.  RIP to the Pillsbury Throwboy.

Loved watching him play.  RIP Hefty Lefty 

 

[eoMMan]

How big did he get before he passed?

 

[Ted Stickles]

So sad that he passed at 38 years young.

I always pictured Butterbean underneath those pads.  The hefty man could ball out though.

RIP Jared.

He got that super bowl ring that Seau couldn’t get though.

Was a few years behind my stepson at Ft. Thomas Highlands.  The whole town is in mourning.  Such a talent and so, so funny with his football stories.  Going to miss him.

In a weird coincidence, the other backup QB on the 2007 Giants (Anthony Wright) was shot multiple times by his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend on Monday.

He had emergency surgery and was listed as being stable the last I heard.

 

[Judge Smails]

Was over 500 lbs at one time. Sad RIP Jared

UIFL legend

People who knew him seemed to think he was just the nicest guy ever. Very sad.

"Pillsbury Throwboy" is still the greatest nickname ever IMO.

Off subject a little, but did they lose their coach?  I noticed they haven't been as good the past few years.

They stopped taking kids outside the district.

 

[Punxsutawney Phil]

I'm curious about his health problems.  Did he have something wrong with him, or was all of this related to his weight?  38 seems far too young for anyone.

Ohhh that makes sense.

I have a friend who went to UK, and they are very upset and he says the Lexington community is devastated...he was really visible and connected locally.

Northern KY area as well. Great dude.  Enjoyed his takes on UK athletics.  Really, really sucks.
