5. I am so sad.

Loved him, as a pitcher and a person. He seemed like the nicest guy.

RIP, Jose.

6. Some unfortunately fallout in the wake of his death

Drugs and alcohol involved, and undoubtedly a lot of anguish and frustration among the survivors.

The families of the two other men who died in Fernandez's boat are suing his estate for $2 million apiece.

7. You should have started a new thread intead of zombie-ing a thread mourning his death.

8. If you feel so strongly about it, you go right ahead

I think this hardly offends the sensibilities of most forum members. "Zombie-fying," gimme a break!
