Shad Gaspard missing after being pulled out to sea
Saved his 10 year old before being pulled out by the riptide. Fuck. |

Oh fuck. That's tragic. I was reading a few years ago how he foiled a bank robbery. Dude married a fitness model and seemed to have life by the balls after getting a pretty raw deal from WWE.

Tugboat must be the number one suspect here as he is forever pulling things out to sea.

They’ve stopped looking for him. No hope.

Sucks, I remember him all the way back from Tough Enough. Sadly if they don't get rescued in a few minutes, you just hope for a recovery of his body for his family's sake.

Vince sent his condolences to the family of Darren Young.

Officials ended up calling off the search around 4PM today.
This is what the weather was like earlier today at the beach during the search efforts.

Well, if he is gone, he damn sure went out a hero.

This is really awful news. Can't believe some of your are making such shitty jokes. I've seen people more heartbroken about drug overdoses from our 'heroes' around here. Dude goes out a hero and gets reduced to some unfunny banter.
Yeah, I know, none of us know him, people die every day, that's what we do around here, blah blah blah. Still pretty shitty. Couldn't imagine being his ten year old son right about now. |

People deal with shit in different ways. And none of us actually knew the man. Hushed tones and pasted on humility can come off grating to people too. I don’t think anyone is genuinely happy that this happened to the guy. Cryme Tyme didn’t suck that bad.

I'm still amazed that they never won the tag belts. Especially in that era.

I saw Cryme Tyme at WrestleCon last year. I knew Shad was a huge dude of course but I was blown away at how big JTG was in person considering he was one of the smallest guys on the main roster his whole time there. I dunno if he'd bulked up since he'd left or if that's just perspective on how big a lot of the roster really are.

Did Cryme Tyme have a tag title match with Jerishow at like Summerslam 09 or something like that? I remember one time where it really felt like they were about to take the straps, but they just...didn't.

Think they had a #1 contender spot that they never cashed in on for whatever reason.

I think this explains your failure to break the big time as a comedian pretty nicely. You couldn't come up with anything so you just lean into the old "freedom of expression as long as it's what I want to express" bullshit. This is the internet bro, if this fucker wanted my respect in death he should have won 5 titles, gotten away with a rape and taken the kid out with him in a swirling vortex of exploding machinery. |

I really hope the kid doesn't internalize this as somehow being his fault.
