    Hard to watch.
     
  2. Oh, my God. This is so fucked up. I have his Wikipedia page up from earlier because I was curious about how old he is. I wanted to see how much longer he was likely to keep doing this after someone mentioned him on a thread here, because he's so damned good on MTP.

    Holy fucking shit, this sucks.

    I really thought this was a joke headline and that he'd gotten into some kind of trouble. This is obviously much worse. What a shock.

    RIP, tough for his family. Brokaw did a heck of a job keeping it together.

    I can't believe it. Can't believe it.

    Brokaw is making me cry like a little girl.

    Devastating.

    I am shocked he is 58. I thought he was younger than that.

    For all the shit I give NBC and MSNBC, this really sucks. He is one of the good men in the business.

    He asked hard questions of any guest on his show. This really does suck.

    I'll always remember his dry-erase board from eight years ago.
     
  9. Definitely my favorite talking head, sports or politics. What a shame, especially when this is his time of the year.

    58, way too young.

    Very ironic considering the person who thought his dad was deceased a few weeks ago.
