So so so awful. There really isn't much else I could say.

Chris Henry, dead at 26, could have been a role model
By MJD, via Yahoo! Sports blog, Shutdown Corner Redemption stories are the best kinds of stories. If someone's failed, lost their way or made more mistakes than we deem acceptable, I always find myself on that guy's side. I'm not there supporting what they've done or making excuses for them, but hoping that they'll find a way to be better.
