That's terrible. The poor guy, and his family. So young. -
Sad, sad news. All remaining Serie A games cancelled as a mark of respect.Comment

RIP to a fine player taken too young.
This remarkable tribute has been paid him by colleague and friend, Gianluigi Buffon:
"You have a young wife and family members who are suffering. Your little girl deserves to know that her father was in all respects a perfect person. You were the best expression of an ancient, surpassed world, in which values such as altruism, elegance, education and respect for others, were the masters."Comment

Wow. That says a lot for Buffon too.Comment

Shocking loss, they're now saying the poor guy had a heart attack in his sleep.
And add me to the list of people impressed - and surprised - by Buffon's tribute.
RIP Grande Davide.Comment
