I’m guessing everyone in the know must’ve gotten word last week that things were going severely downhill when Matt bumped the thread . Just beyond fucked .

Never met the guy, rarely listened and just thinking about his poor son who now has no parents brings tears to my eyes. Fucking sickening.

Thats when he went into hospice.

Pretty heartfelt and emotional tribute on AM1000 over the last 40min or so.

Shae and Jordan Cornette spent half a segment on their national ESPN Sunday afternoon show talking about him. They were really emotional.

I wonder if the parents were exposed to something over the years to die in such a close time frame?

Or they were yet more victims of the Illinois water supply.

Either way, RIP.

He seemed like a cool guy. It's hard not to like positive and upbeat people.

Never really listened to 1000 much, but I knew who Dickerson was. I heard him on a couple handful of occasions. This is very sad and brought a tear to my old ass eye.

RIP

Jeff was a good dude. Hung out with him a few times and was at that outing Dr. Ken mentioned. Just terrible for his son.

For all of Julie’s bullshit stunts , this is what that platform should be used for.
Edit : it’s at 103k of a 100k goal . Awesome to see people step up .

This breaks my heart. 11 year old boy losing both is parents to cancer. That ain't right. Just ain't right. More sad that JD had to realize that his boy would go on with no parents. That's horrible.

I was listening to ESPN 1000. They broke it at about 5:30 or so. Fred was in with Silvy. But then Waddle came on the air to join them. They extended their shift and went until 8pm talking about JD. Carmen joined them. They all broke up crying. Got me too. I choked up listeneing.

They took some calls. One caller said that Jonathan Hood was the kids godfather. Is that true, Nas? I didn't know they were that tight. So condolences to Jonathan and everybody at ESPN 1000.

Horrible.

Yep. Better cause then Julie asking for people to give her money for a vacation. Absolutely. Wow. They got 75k pretty quick. That's awesome.

Jeez. It's at 126k now.

A lot of people loved JD. And care for his son.

Looking at that gofundme page, his boy looks just like Jeff.

It was at $20k around 7pm. Absolutely incredible.

I never really even heard o' the guy. And I've listened to a fair amount of ESPN 1000. Waddle, Silvy, Kap, but his name is very vague.

Sux. RIP.

Not in a “ha ha board insurance joke” way, I morbidly wonder how much life insurance he carried since his wife had already passed away.

I would hope ESPN would have a group policy that at least provides 1x his annual salary.

Really enjoyed his Bears stuff and when he hosted. Seemed like a decent guy. Heart goes out to his son; can't imagine losing both parents within a couple of years of each other to cancer at his age.

Got his requisite 20 seconds on SportsCenter and fade to black as they headed to commercial break. Nice of them to pay tribute.
