    Wow!

    Fred Lane, the running back for the Indy, was found dead today. I just heard it on the radio.

    Sad how much the NFL players are always in trouble or how much tragedy surrounds them.

    Even worse,

    I heard that they found a 7 month old baby in the next room. As of right now, it looks like a justifiable homicide(whatever that means). But they are not ruling out suicide.

    And to top it off? He was only 24.

    Just read about his troubles with the law recently in Tenn. Also he and his wife were having problems too. Might have been suicide. We'll find out soon enough.

    ESPN is reporting the police suspect domestic violence, but are still investigating.

    Who would've thought Don Nelson would pass up Olumide Oyedeji not once, not twice, but thrice?
