PatternMaster Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 I didn't even know he was sick, just saw him on Sports Reporters a few days ago...RIP...Classy guy, very professional. He was one the few ESPN talking heads that didn't try to make himself a celebrity, going to be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimKrumrieFan Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Did they ever announce what he was suffering from/what happened? Read a few tweets and articles and it never touched the how/why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Skins Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 From the ESPN article: "While we don't yet have all the specifics, John wasn't feeling well physically in recent days and sadly, he was unresponsive earlier this morning. We appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers for our cherished father, husband, brother and uncle." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USN Bengal Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 John Saunders was my favorite ESPN sportscaster. Classy guy who will be missed... Godspeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hint of Snow Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 God this sucks. He was one of my absolute favorites. Replaced Dick Schapp which is nearly impossible. I do remembers a show where he said he was "humbly" manning the chair and Mitch Albom remarked he was "more than capable/manning/filling in... blah blah blah" Paraphrasing here but you get it. RIP John. Awesome guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
