I think he'd do the Thursday night and Saturday night games every week.  He was great.

PJ O'rourke died at 74.   World class satirist.   Loved his books as I was coming of age and into 20s.  Quite versatile in his subject matter too.

Dwayne Haskins died in a car accident this morning. Incredibly sad. Seemed like a tremendously good guy. One of those stories you never want to read.

So strange to be hit by a car.  That's really sad.

The first report I read said car accident and the rest have said hit by a car. Truly sad. One of those guys from a rival school that was easy to respect due his talent and like because of his personality. 

Washington was such a bad fit. Thought the Steelers was a great landing spot. Terrible!

Apparently ran out of gas on the freeway and when he stepped out of his car he got hit.

Absolutely horrible.  I really thought if given a chance he could make it.  Thought the Steelers should have rolled with him this year over Trubisky
