    Haven't seen it anywhere here. Sorry if someone beats me to it.

    Not surprising, since he's always been a pill.

    There's a joke to be made here about a lopsided trade of pills for water. I just know it.

    The guy even found a way to fuck up suicide.

    Did Magic slip him too many roofies?

    That link has to be one of the most irresponsibly-written stories ever.

    Possible overdose? Meaning it might not be an overdose? Overdose of what, Tylenol? Heroin?

    I understand it's a breaking story, but that's ridiculous.

    I mistakenly started another thread, which I hope is soon deleted.
    I didn't look hard enough for the first one.

    For real though, let's hope he recovers from whatever allegedly happened.
    This is bad news for Zeke and he needs prayers or whatever you can spoon out to support him.
    Depression and any kind of OD is serious business.

    I know the people who hang on this message board eschew political correctness (I just read the Hit a Jew thread). But joking about a man's possible suicide? That's OK around here?

    I really thought this thread would get to page 2 before anyone had anything nice to say about Isiah or wished him well. I'm quite disappointed in Blitz.

    And AQB is en fuego...

    Given his propensity for failing upward, I'm seeing a botched murder in his near future.
