As I feared, it's looking like an overdose/possible suicide.

He took his younger brothers death very hard with Anaheim and was never the same.

This guy has been an amazing shitshow to watch the past few years. He was like a combination of Chris Farley, Charlie Sheen and Donald Trump.

Aww man this sucks. He was only 45 too. I got to see Tribe once and they were truly amazing. I was always hoping they could patch things up and come back. Rest easy Phife Dawg.
