won't matter to any of you here but to anyone with roots/time in Annapolis....this dude was a fixture on the streets for decades.  he had some mental issues, and spent basically his entire life roaming the streets at a manic pace, often just in teh street along the curb, picking up trash, especially bags, waiving them frantically, often with a smile...he was cared for by family, and dodged/given room by Annapolis motorists...a beloved figure..I'm genuinely sad

That's a town that once upon a time had funk and grit and room for weirdos freaks and artists.  Now it's a bland rich white yuppie hell, but I go back far enough to remember when the town had more people like Carlester....it was cool how the town all sort of looked out for him and appreciated him..

Now the medical examiner is saying he was killed by chest trauma from the fireworks blast, not falling.

If your friends can't be trusted to not shoot explosives at you, maybe skip their July 4th party.

"Chest trauma" that kills a 24 year old pro athlete, from a firework? 

Were they shooting RPGs at one another?

Next they'll report that JPP actually lost those fingers to a sparkler accident.

With the time difference I would listen to Big Daddy at my desk in the late evenings.  Always liked his show as it was more than sports.  Talked about different concerts he'd been to, venues, music, travels, movies, food, good stuff.
