RIP someone or another

RIP, Pat Summitt, 64, legendary University of Tennessee women's basketball coach. She was the winningest coach in the history of the game, and a gem of a woman in every way. She suffered from alzheimer's for about 5 years. Sad day.

RIP, an amazing woman.

Also RIP to Buddy Ryan, who was coaching (not head coach) on two great NFL teams: the Jets that won the Super Bowl with Joe Namath, and the Bears that dominated in 86.  Rob and Rex are decent defensive coaches, but Buddy was in another class IMO.

It's a tough day... just found out that one of Matt's best friends and former roommates in Tampa, and someone many of you I know have met and partied with has passed away. Jake Blake was not even 30. I'm completely gutted. I saw it coming based on some of his erratic Facebook posts, that's the worst part. Don't know the circumstances of his death but I have a strong sense that it was self inflicted. He was tortured in many ways in recent years. God rest his soul. One of the good guys. I'm lost for words.
