I respect a suicide.  Ain't no one else live his life.  He decided to go, his call.

Not sure if anyone else had the pleasure to meet Bernie but hung with him a handful of times. Hard guy not to like.

I first met him in the late 70's when I was playing hockey in high school.  He visited our practice in Ocean City as a guest of our coach.  He was working with the goalies and was just an incredibly nice guy to all of us no matter how truly awful we were talent-wise. I never forgot that.  RIP, Bernie.

Buccaneers announced the passing of former Pro Bowl running back Doug Martin. He was 36.

OAKLAND, Calif. - Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders star running back Doug Martin has been identified as the suspect who died in Oakland Police Department custody on Saturday after suffering an unspecified medical emergency.

Sources confirmed to KTVU on Sunday evening that Martin, 36, died in a hospital after he became unresponsive following his arrest by OPD officers who were responding to reports of a possible break-in.

The backstory:

Officers were called about 4:15 a.m. on Saturday to a home in the 11000 block of Ettrick Street on reports of the break-in at the same time the department received reports of a person "experiencing a medical emergency" at the same location, the OPD told KTVU.

The department said officers found the suspect – later identified as Martin – inside. However, when they tried to detain him, he allegedly briefly resisted.

OPD officers managed to take him into custody, where he became unresponsive and was taken by paramedics to a hospital.

The OPD did not specify why Martin had been taken into custody.

The nature of Martin's medical emergency was not known, and the OPD said its Homicide Section and Internal Affairs Bureau, as well as the Oakland City Police Commission, the Community Police Review Agency and the Alameda County District Attorney's Office will be conducting an investigation into his death.

The officers who were involved in the arrest leading up to the death were placed on paid administrative leave.
