With a heavy heart I’ve had to step away from my various ESPN duties to care for my ailing wife and our wonderful 7-year old son. I can’t thank ESPN, my friends & colleagues enough for their unwavering support & concern for my family.


Hope everything turns out ok.

Sounds like Goff.

Godspeed, JD.

Good Lord, that doesn't sound particularly good. What a bummer.

MANY of the old guard are turds, albeit not warm ones.

I remember JD talking about how his wife beat some illness a year or so ago. I think it was cancer. Maybe it came back.

It's a shame. Best wishes to her and her family.

Oof, that's terrible if that's what it is. I hope she makes a full recovery.

Zach gave them a shout-out at the top of the 6th. Called Dickerson "his best friend in the world." Barely got through it without his voice breaking.

Sad.

I remember Big Fan saying that Zaidman and JD would always be around each other at Bears camp. They both have covered the Bears for over a decade. Makes sense that they would become best friends. They're around each other every day and for the most part being at Halas Hall is pretty much just waiting for hours until you get one or two interviews at the podium. So the media has all the time in the world to talk to each other.

Dickerson's wife died.

We're going to call you 'newspaper.'

Condolences, Jeff.

Not enough ATTITUDE and/or BITE.

Terrible
