Darryl Drake passed away

Lead by example Slash and just start with a sincere handshake and offer condolences. Better to gain another man's respect from a simple gesture at this point in time.

could get something trending on twitter like #steelcitysupport or something like that to show the players the fans are only there for moral support and will not ask for autographs for practice.

Sounds like a great idea Hitman
Good on you

It will feel strange interacting with the players Thursday. I feel bad asking for any signatures.

I understand what you mean, Slash. You do what you feel is right in your heart at that moment. And enjoy man.

JuJu was pretty bummed out today it looked like. Can't imagine what the young man's going through, but it was nice to see him and Ben together. It was also nice to see Moncrief lend him a hand to pick himself up off the ground with the caption "My Brother". These guys are going to need some guidance this season and I hope Ray Sherman can bring that to them.

Beautiful moments at the beginning of practice today. RIP coach Drake.

Darryl Drake went to the hospital Saturday night, per report by @EdBouchette . https://www.pennlive.com/steelers/2...l-with-chest-pains-saturday-night-report.html …

Keep in mind he passed Sunday morning............

∆ Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? If he went to the hospital, they had to have given him an EKG and run all kinds of tests.

This better be legit because if it's not, that's really really sad. And if he went to the hospital, and they released him where he died hours later, holy **** is there a malpractice suit coming for them.

That report is legit.

It is also being reported that the test didn't show anything, but the doctors wanted to keep him overnight for observation, but he declined

Folks if the Dr. wants to keep you for observation. Stay. His life might have been saved if he would have listened....

Thanks for the advice Marcus Welby.

 

[SteelerSask2]

Thanks for the advice Marcus Welby.

He is right though. Everyone dies. no point in it happening unnecessarily. I never go to the doctor when I feel sick in a way I have many times. but if it is different or weird, I'm off to the hospital/ clinic. I knew a guy who was complaining of what was classic heart attack problems (besides chest pains) for a week before he died.

I foresee a probable malpractice suit in the near future...

Worse than that, he was only 62.
