Damien Nash RIP


Up early in the morning, dressed in black
Don't ask why? 'Cause I'm down in a suit and tie...

For the second time in this off-season, tradegy struck the local NFL team as RB Damien Nash died this past weekend. The cause of death is unknown at this time, but his family had a history of heart ailments.
Outside of a good game versus the Chargers, Nash didn't see much playing time, but may have figured into the team's special teams' plans in the future. From all accounts, he was popular with his teammates, a good father and husband, and active in his community.
Being in Big 12 country, alot of us remember Nash from his days with Mizzou and playing against the Buffs for years. A hard runner, with a deceptive second gear, Nash was drafted in 2005 and signed with Denver as a free agent in 06.
It's hard to make sense of these deaths, of good role-model players, when you have NFL knuckleheads running around in strip clubs, getting caught with guns, and acting like general aholes. Nash dies after a charity basketball game in honor of his ailing brother, while a week ago Pacman Jones is "making it rain" in a strip club and beating down strippers. Fans, teammates, and coaches are left shaking their heads and asking "why?"

I had a class with Nash in Columbia. He really was a good guy, not big headed like alot of players. Terrible loss.
