Social media is all over this story....Good to see.....R.I.P.

 

[Enfuego]

ESPN publishes a story with no guess as to why a 61 year old passes? Bad journalism.

Before his storied TV career, John Saunders (left) was just a puck-loving college kid living his dream at Western Michigan.

Hope I'm wrong but that is how it is starting to seem. If it was a heart attack or some disease someone would have leaked it.

Depression is truly the silent killer.

I really liked him on Sports Reporters.

he was found unresponsive in the morning

I'm thinking heart attack during the night

Probably suicide.

It's kind of secretive huh? That adds suspicion.
