Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle killed in NYC plane crash

[stickymitts]

This sucks...

[Birdsfan]

These planes don't have black boxes either, right?

No.

[Da champ]

It's not really appropriate to relate this situation to baseball & the Red Sox. It's very sad to see this happen and one can only hope that the good lord is watching over his family right now and helping them get through this very sad time. My prayers are with the Lidle family.

 

You are right and I apologize. Maybe the Hitchcock was coming out of me. Lidle used to be a Red also.

I made the same mistake a few minutes ago. Sometimes we respond before we think about what's really important. And that would be his family and friends. I didn't mean to, and I am sure you didn't either, to make the wrong comment. We are all human and when something like this happens, we tend to respond with what comes to mind first.

 

My prayers are with his family and friends.

This is very sad news. My prayers go out to him and his family and friends and everyone else that was involved in this accident...

[cvillecat]

Prayers go out to the families and friends.

This is what the plane looked like:

 

 

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but is that the actual picture of the plane?

Don't think so. Saw on ESPN where they showed Lidle next to his plane and his was green tipped I think. That picture doesn't have any green on it..

[TrueBlueSV]

This is just such a sad story. The more I read about it, the sadder it gets. :cry: :cry:

No, just the same type.

[HammerTime]

Very sad story. Prayers for everyone involved and their families.

The more I watch on this, the more it stinks. Baseball lost one of the good guys today...

[Mr. No Name]

The worst part is his wife and son didnt even know until they got off a commercial jet and that his dad found out while watching the news

Wow, that had to be gut wrenching.

[halfback20]

Wow, that had to be gut wrenching.

 

 

Has to be. Horrible horrible news.
