Didn't realize it's been almost 5 years since he left ESPN. I think he was still working for ESPN Radio up in Seattle though. Looks like he was still writing up until a couple weeks ago.

John was a weekly contributor to the local radio casts here and will be dearly missed. RIP John.

Very sad. Had a rough start in Washington and seemed to be doing well in Pittsburgh. None of that matters. What a tragedy...so young...

Schefter’s initial tweet on this was downright tasteless. What a garbage human being.

Guys like him and Darren Rovell who live online have completely forgotten what it is like to be a real person. Awful people.

And he wasn't even the worst. Gil Brandt's stuff was even worse.
