Dude was amazing for us in 2001 and 2002. I know his life took a turn for the worse after he left. But this sucks. He wasn’t that old.

One of my all time favorite players. He was smooth as silk and strong as a bull. He looked like he was gliding sometimes but then he could run with power. Extremely sad to hear this news.

A year ago, Santonio Beard was on our show. @constant451 turned it into a surprise reunion. Santonio was with us briefly and got disconnected. He was full of joy seeing his teammates again. Here’s a short from that episode.

Looks like some, at best, a once ok, but now low end, apartment complex in East Atlanta.
