Sad end to a troubled life.
I wrote this on another forum, but is it a sad end? Seems more like a fitting end to me.
"troubled life" goes a bit too far in the PC direction IMO. The guy was a piece of ****.[/QUOTE
It may be fitting, but it's sad when someone pisses away the opportunities he had. And yeah, he did a lot of terrible, reprehensible things and he deserved to be in prison. But calling someone a piece of **** after they're gone goes a bit too far in the other direction, IMO. It's all a matter of opinion.

True, it is a matter of opinion as illustrated thusly;
Opinion - Tom Osborne should be admonished for endangering the community of Lincoln, Nebraska by recruiting Lawrence Phillips.
Fact - Lawrence Phillips was a piece of ****.
I wonder if Saint Tom Osborne will be at the funeral?
I ******* HATE Lawrence Phillips. As a Cyclone Fan, as someone who respects women, and as a 49ers fan he was the absolute worst human being possible.
1.) He was a murderer & woman beater
2.) As a 49er, He completely whiffed a textbook block on a corner blitz by Aeneas Williams of the Cardinals. This gave Steve Young a significant concussion which ultimately caused him to retire.
3.) Phillips had a long history of violence being swept under the rug by God Osborne
4.) He played for Nebraska, **** the huskers.
I guess, what I'm trying to say is that the world is probably a little bit of a better place now that he's gone.
You really threw a missed block into that list?

During his tenure, Lawrence Phillips was just one of many criminals in their program. Just my opinion. I will admit that the pressure to win in Lincoln is incredible but their program really lowered its' standards.True, it is a matter of opinion as illustrated thusly;

Hopefully we have a moment of silence to honor this hero at our opening football game.
