Todd Christensen dead at 57
This shocked me. I had no idea he was sick.
I think he drove most of us crazy with his broadcasts, but at the same time, I feel sad about this more than would be the case for just any BYU sports icon dying. He seemed like the kind of sports blowhard I would have liked to have personally known. Goodbye Todd, we'll miss you. http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/cougars...tball.html.csp |

The Dick Harmon article gives more details. Had liver failure, was waiting for transplant. Had the transplant surgery and never regained consciousness and died.

I don't get it. Are you saying that since he doesn't drink there was nothing he could do?
