Title: RIP Vernon Grant
Post by: jeromechickenbone on May 24, 2005, 09:14:29 PM
Don't know if anybody saw this headline today, or even cares, but a football player from my Alma Mater - Oklahoma State University was killed in a car accident last night.  His name was Vernon Grant.  Not only was he an exceptional athelete, but an exceptional person as well.  He was one of the happiest, most positive people i've ever had the chance to meet.  Its a damn shame when someone with their whole life ahead of them passes.  Shit just doesn't make sense.

RIP Vernon

Well they didn't release the exact circumstances of the accident.  But likely was his fault.  I'm not saying it was an act of God or anything (i'm agnostic), i'm just saying it sucks.  I knew the guy, and he was a rare individual.  Sad for his family.

Oh, sorry.
