Damn sad news, at a loss for words except I found his opinions interesting and this is so sad for this to happen to such a young man...I knew he had health issues but nothing this serious, Rest in Peace Joe, even though I dont know them, your family and friends are in my thoughts...

Is there a poster on the board that has a line to his loved ones? I second Andy and philscki’s sentiment of a crowd funding for his kids that are left behind w/o a father.

As badly as we butted heads, and it was ugly, he grew on me bigtime outside of the selections threads, as he did with most others on this board. We watched the kid grow into an helluva an identifier. He held DougieSal in such high regard. Ditto with Andy. Clashed with Bama, Knicks, and I, but I learned to put those feelings aside as they weren’t doing anyone any good. As much as Bama and Joe traded barbs, you’d think they were mortal enemies, but Bama cared for the kid (in his own warped way). He was the one that reached out to me to let me know today, and I could tell that he was genuinely upset about his passing. Goes to show how this community you’ve started can truly rally around one another in time of need. Docicu’s death hurt. Dellinger’s loss was a punch to our gut. RHT’s untimely death hit me in a way that I didn’t see coming. Nobody deserves to check out in their 30’s. It’s just NOT RIGHT. He leaves but not without an impression on us that will live forever. My heart absolutely goes out to his family in these trying times. I think we all can answer the bell as much as we’re comfortable with to ensure his children will know how many people/complete strangers their dad has impacted.

It’s been a very sad day for me. Just a sad day for all of us I think.

I have a proposal for us all in the interim- what if we all chip in and bet whatever his Derby selection would have been in memoriam? $5, $10, $20 each, can probably have DeRosa help set up an account specific for this. If it wins it goes to his kids/postmortem expenses.
