    Very sad, all I've seen has just said "collapsed and died", has anyone heard anything more specific?

    Here in Denver, nobody knows anything else yet either. Just saying how nobody can believe it happened again. First D-Will, now Damien. Just horrible. :(

    I'm willing to bet a cardiac condition. What was the reason for his brother's transplant? Congenital? Injury? It could also be an aortic tear (which, IIRC, is what killed John Ritter).

    I agree, it sounds like a problem with his heart that finally caught up to him.

    From FoxSports.com

    Apparently he collapsed in front of his wife and daughter just after getting home from the charity basketball game he organized on behalf of his brother. His brother's cardiologist doesn't think they had the same heart problem. We'll know for sure in a few days I guess.

    Sounds like a heart condition that he didn't know about.

    Nothing new yet. It'll probably be another week or so.

    Man, the Broncos are having a tough off season.

    At least we traded for Dre Bly today.
