Jigga Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Sadly, he passed away...just heard it on ESPN Radio On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

FiddySicks Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Oh no.

Puckguy14 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Just heard that on ESPN. Interesting on what happened here then. Apparantly, he was on the last scoring drive with 2 seconds left in the game. And KPIX, the provider of the 49ers game here in San Francisco had footage of him walking off the field, and looked fine. Just shocking. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lost_limey Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I know this is tasteless, but when do you think ESPN/SF Chronicle will run the first story linking this to 'roids with absolutely no proof whatsoever?Just to clarify, I think it's a tragic an dunfortunate incident. Reminds me of Marc-Vivien Foe dying while playing soccer for Cameroon, but I'm making a point about media vultures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckguy14 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 who knows. limey. but the autopsy will interesting. The team practices in Santa Clara where the temperatures are mild if not comfortable in the mid70s to at most upper 80s on average. And conditions in Denver were in the 60s tonight. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Whats really strange is that almost every site has this as the lead story but NFL.com still has him listed as rushed to the hospital and 49ers.com gives absolutely no mention On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

DEAD! Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 This really shocking news to wake up to. My condolences to the 49ers organisation and the Herrion family I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanB06 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Whats really strange is that almost every site has this as the lead story but NFL.com still has him listed as rushed to the hospital and 49ers.com gives absolutely no mention It's up on the Niners' site - there's a statement from the team that mentions it.I'd expect that once the Web guys show up to work there will be more information.[EDIT: And I was correct.

NJTank Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 He just played in NFL Europe too so he had to atleast be in some sort of playing shape. Im sure he had a physical before camp too. This is a shocker I heard it on the late SC last night and it didnt sound good using CPR is always trouble. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 This is shocking to me as well.What gets me is that he could of been in real great shape. Now, I could be wrong about that.But, it does make you wonder how far do these players need to push themselves in order to become a good football player.

schlim Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 This is shocking to me as well.What gets me is that he could of been in real great shape. Now, I could be wrong about that. It's sad, and I'm not diminishing his death at all, but the man was 6'3 and 310 lbs. Don't you think that may have played a role in his demise too? Korey Stringer was 6'4 346, and despite whatever phyical condition these guys are in, doesn't their sheer physical size lend itself more readily to higher strains like playing football in pads and heat for 3+ hours?

Sabrejeff Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Whats really strange is that almost every site has this as the lead story but NFL.com still has him listed as rushed to the hospital and 49ers.com gives absolutely no mention NFL Network didn't have anything on their scoreboard at the bottom until 3 this afternoon. And the first few times it scrolled by it said Steve Herrion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
