Comment:: “This is truly a tragic story. Such a young man with all of his life ahead of him. I'm sure the Club will truly miss him and I wish his family and friends the best as they deal with this terrible event.”

Comment:: “Perhaps they need to decide air time like the US elections where both sides are required to have equal air time? I think the idea of paying them for actually being on TV is a good one, rather than just paying them because they are in the league and will happen to end up on TV a time or two. They do need to distribute the wealth better to even out the playing field a bit more, literally and figuratively.”

Comment:: “Its truly sad to see such a young player end before they really had the chance to make a name for themselves. By all accounts he had far to go and had just really got started. There is so much tragedy in sports and not always at the player's fault. He will be sadly missed.”
