R.I.P.

The best defensive end to ever play the game of football passed away this morning. His name was Reggie White. Over his 15 years as an NFL pro, the future hall-of-famer totaled an NFL record 198 sacks! The record was later beaten by Bruce Smith. He started off with the Philadelphia Eagles and then joined the Green Bay Packers, where he won his first and only Super Bowl against the Patriots back in 1997. He called it quits with the Carolina Panthers in 2000. Reggie was a 2-time Defensive Player of the Year and ordained minister. One week after his birthday, Reggie White dies at the age of 43, leaving behind his wife, Sara, and his 2 young children. It was supposedly a massive heart attack.
