This is just crazy!!!! If a 43 year old former world class athlete can just drop dead then we are all fucked. One of the greatest defensive players the NFL ever saw.

Heard this yesterday. Still in Shock. That is just crazy. No let like I ever meet the guy or anything but he was so young to pass aways. Damn it just seems like he was playing football not to long ago.Common Sense is not Common at all.Comment

I found the exact quote
"Homosexuals are trying to compare their plight with the plight of black men or black people," White said in part. "In the process of history, homosexuals have never been castrated, millions of them never died. Homosexuality is a decision. It's not a race."
What would be funny is to find out if it was a coke overdose, probably not, but there is always a hope!

There's always hope that he died from a coke overdose?!!! That might be the stupidest comment I have ever seen in my almost 3 years on this board. So tell me, exactly what did Reggie White do to make you feel this way??? Beat your team in the playoffs??? Or maybe said some things you don't agree with??? Maybe his comment struck a nerve because they hit so close to home?? Granted his spiel about gays and Hispanic and Asians was straight out of line. But to wish an overdose on him is even worse. Those comment in no way diminish what he did on the field or off. Anyone who knows anything about the man knows that he was as good a person off the field as he was on. And to wish a particular death, or any type of death, on him shows not only your stupidity, but your ignorance as well.Originally posted by ezdude1970nice player maybe, nice guy i don't think so. you probably have not heard his famous 15 minutes speech about gays and minorities.

I am not going to get into verbal exchange with you. But I will tell you my stand on Reggie White, he was a dumbass football player, and as far as a defensive lineman was overrated at best. He stroked me as an ignorant person who was hiding behind his religious believes.
In term of your comment that ?I wished a particular death on him?. Let me disagree with you there. My comment happened after his death occurred so it was a mere speculation to the cause of his death. It might come out a little harsh, but the reason for that was not addressed to Reggie, it was more towards ESPN making him a hero and a Role Model now, which let me assure you he was not.
Hopefully it made a little clear for you to the roots of my comments. And one more thing I want to clarify, I am not apologizing to you or anybody else here, just making sure that my message is not misinterpreted.Comment
