    Very sad. I wonder if it had anything to do with drugs. I used to think the guy was just a dumbass with no self-control, but at some point it became clear the poor dude really just had problems.

    38 years old - he could still be playing if things had turned out differently, think about that!

    Coulda been an overdose, but the poor guy had liver cancer as well.

    Oh, I had no idea. I'd go with the cancer then.

    Man, that guy really just could not catch a break.
