I didn't know he was in bad health. I remember him not looking too good on tv a couple years ago. Was it cancer?

Jeez, really? Yeah, he wasn't looking all that good a few years ago, but it looked like he was on the upswing. RIP.

Sad - liked him on the .mtn

I think he was fighting something, he didn't look well the last few times I saw him. I got to meet him at a party in Laramie before a home game 4 or 5 years ago...was very personable and fit in.

I will never forget the story about him taking a piss in the press box trash can.

I will always remember him as host of American Gladiators for the second season. RIP Todd

"Provo • Former BYU football star, five-time NFL Pro Bowler, two-time Super Bowl champion and television sports analyst Todd Christensen died Wednesday morning during surgery at a local hospital.

Christensen, who has battled liver disease and other serious illnesses in recent years, was 57."

That is terrible. RIP.
