Aww man. God bless him and his family. I am glad he got to see his son be so successful and win a championship before he died.

I am so f'n sick of hearing about this. it has been the biggest news story here in pgh the past 2 days. While I feel bad for Jerome and his family, there is no way this should be that big of a story.

My prayers are with Jerome and his family as well. Pittsburgh sure seems to be lost without him, really shows you how good of a person and player he is and was.
