That is so sad for his family but at least he went down as a great player.

it's so horrible. you win the coveted trophy, and you die before your moment of glory.

Its sad that he died as young as he did but at least he died with a smile on his face.

It's unbelievable how something could happen to somebody like that.

That makes me what to cry. I never knew had that age you could have an enlarged heart especially when everyone that knew him said he was perfectly health. :/ that's just sad, and I feel really bad for the family and friends. I hope things get better.

Shouldn't you know if you had an enlarged heart rather than *bang* you're dead?

That's terrible.. very sad. I saw this on the news. I feel sorry for him and his family.. and also all the people who watched him.

Thats really sad. I can't believe that it would happen to someone. You would think that someone would know about his condition...
